Until there's a need for additional categories, I'll probably keep it as is (unless there's a more appropriate name for an existing category.

Additional restrictions to existing categories are somewhat hard to place, which can be seen with Syzx's NG+ run (solo assassin, no items). I could create variables to express those restrictions, but that could lead to a very large number of possible variables.

Regarding restrictions in runs, it's probably best to have a variable "Restriction" or something similarly named with either a Yes or No option and what restrictions the runner used in the description of the run.
