Bullets: more advice

Schiess says:

You can add bullets to tabulated material, and you should. Follow these guidelines: if the tabulated text contains examples or suggestions, use bullets; if the tabulated text contains formal parts of a formal document (like the buyer’s options in a contract), use numbers. The general rule is this: if you will need to refer to the items later, give them numbers. Later reference to “3(a)(2)” will be easier than to “the second bullet under (3)(a).”
