Comment (by nickm):

 I agree we could simplify better.   Our current simplification logic can
 only remove a policy A when there is some other B that contains all of A.
 (And when there is no intervening policy C that makes things more complex
 -- see exit_policy_remove_redundancies for the full details.)  We don't
 currently combine or split policies even when their port or address ranges
 would permit this.

 But in the second case, I don't think it's a bug.  We're leaving those
 policies out of the descriptor because they are redundant.  Consider
 `reject *:20-21` in particular.  There's nothing in the policy to say we
 accept those ports, so `reject *:20-21` is completely contained within
 `reject *:*` at the end of the policy.
