I wasn't even aware that the "not centering the horizon" thing was a formal rule, but it's something I found myself avoiding without even realising it (especially when going wide).
The other two 'general ruiles' usually come naturally when I frame a photo but I always force myself to check this one and double check in cases when I have to put it through the middle. There is one important exception though, if you are photographing reflections in water, dividing the frame in half usually works best when a mirror image of the top of the frame appears in the bottom as well.
