A great grouping game with conditional logic, but I am having some trouble...

I am having trouble understanding how to link up the new condition in this question. I understand what JY is saying in the explanation video and it makes sense but I have no idea how I can apply that in future questions that are similar.

With the new condition I cannot help but see H -> /S -> J .... "contraposed" as /J -> S -> /H. I don't see how the /S -> J relationship changes, I am trying so hard. Any advice?

    This is the original condition (2nd & 4th rule):
    /S ---> J ---> H

    Q12: If you add S --> /H (= H -->/S), it becomes /S ---> J ---> H -->/S.

    So with the new rule, the relationship "J ---> /S" is added.

    Combined with the original rule (/S ---> J), now it's /S <---> J ("always apart, never together" rule).
