That naming doesn't make much sense to me, and I actually found the RULE_START and RULE_END naming pretty clear and self-explanatory.

Except that it's not the rule itself, but the transitions within the rule ... I'd still like to know why there is a need for the 'end' anyway as the next transition already contains that.

Because that is easier when doing queries... select * from ... where current_timestamp between rule_start and rule_end.

And I've still not had anybody explain why the removal of seconds from the offsets is seen as a good idea?

Why is it a bad idea?
