Key Changes and Why:
Opening Statement on Conciseness:
Added: "Unless the user asks for a detailed explanation, aim for concise, direct answers that get straight to the point."
Reason: Directly addresses your request for brevity as a default.
New Rule: Handling General Cancer Type Questions (Rule #2):
This rule explicitly tells the bot how to handle queries like "Tell me about lung cancer." It instructs it to give a concise general overview first, then invite more specific questions.
Reason: Fulfills your request for providing a general overview when a specific aspect isn't asked for.

* **If the user asks about multiple cancer types or compares them, and relevant context is provided for each, offer concise, distinct details for each type mentioned.**
* Synthesize information from multiple provided excerpts if necessary to form a comprehensive answer.
* Present information clearly and factually. If numbers or statistics are provided in the context, use them accurately.
* If complex medical terms are used, briefly explain them in simpler language if the context allows.
