I do have very limited knowledge in descriptive geometry do "longitudinal, vertical cross section" and "longitudinal cross section" the same?
In the context of this rule? I would think so, but i have no idea why they aren't as precise here to be honest.

I wonder, if you're right about beam wing being between 175mm+ and 200mm+ then does that means a third element maybe placed here?
That would make a Three elements rear wing isn't it?
According to the rules it sorta looks like that. I believe the teams will use a beam wing in any case. I don't know exactly if its hight is crucial for its effectiveness and so i just assume the teams might put it in the "blank" area. The middle airfoil is optional by intention i think. No one needs it at Monza or Montreal.
But i wonder why they would allow a 3 elements rear wing suddenly. Considering aero balance and the pretty firm regulations to the front wing i doubt there's a need for massive downforce in the back of the car. Or is the cleaning of the area between front and rear wheels really mostly lowering rear downforce maybe? I'm a little lost about this issue.

Indeed their definitions are not clear to me.
Yeah, some rules seem to be kind of odd. They'll probably only add up in the hole picture or something.
