No need to beat down what's put out when the intent is clear.
(Personally, I stand by the division between 11 and 12, rather than 8 and War. It will fill out, in time, and would be sure not to get unwieldy, requiring no future judgment calls on where to cut it next.)
(I also think a line break is a good substitute on its own for a .. • [what are those symbols actually called?], or at least it's always seemed cleaner to me that way.)
EDIT: They're called bullets/bullet points. Of course they are. The world makes sense now. :P
