Yes. That is so.

Where ever he found one, and the heaps came

There are no rules for that. ;^)

No, you don't. One cannot have rhythm without balance, so if there is
"a rule" then balance must take precedence over rhythm.

Bzzzzzzt. Wrong.
(I never would have thought a musician would define THE RULE of music
because there isn't ONE rule.)
Time and scale are independent. The concept of a single "rule" for
music is a false concept. Encompasing time inside the structure of a
scale is false.
If there is a rule for any specific piece of music, it would be
"You either like it or you don't."
