But what confuses me about that linked page is that from what I've heard from others here, option 1 - which is the option I think I'd prefer - requires more than just symlinking 80-net-name-slot.rules to /dev/null...? Apparently you should also create your own 70-my-net-names.rules - but I've heard many people claim they used ethX names instead of netX names, so... again... should I just rename my file to 70-my-net-names.rules and leave the contents alone?

Still confused/concerned about the differences in my current rules (items in mine that aren't in the examples)...

You are right, there are several different ways to disable udev's
predictable network interface names:

1) add net.ifnames=0 to the kernel command line in your boot loader
configuration.

2) use any of the methods listed on the upstream wiki [1] under "I don't
like this, how do I disable this?"

None of those should cause problems later.
