The 'rule of thumb' is given for dérailleurs operating well within their limits, and is immediately followed in the Service Instructions by the correct method of setting chain length which will work for all installations which are within spec, and for Campag and SRAM as well as Shimano. If you're only going to propagate one method of setting dérailleur chain length, it might as well be the latter.
