Great, thanks for the explanation. Does it mean, that sequential mode
shouldn't be used in a scenario, where particular rules modify facts in the
way that allows other rules to evaluate. Eg. rules 1-10 define "region"
value by matching zip-codes and rules 11-20 calculate premium based on the
"region" and customer's age.
