Comment:

 Going to re-open this for some incremental improvements. The bogus path
 works on the current rewrite rules as well.

 There are numerous improvements that seem okay to me. In order:

 1. Remove {{{RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]}}} and change
 {{{files/(.*)}}} in the second rule to {{{files/(.+)}}}.

 2. Remove the condition on the wp-admin trailing slash rule by improving
 the rule itself.

 3. Convert the files and wp-admin rules from {{{^(.*/)?}}} to {{{^([_0-9a-
 zA-Z-]+/)?}}}, to match the other rules and current restrictions.

 4. Remove the wp-content/plugins restriction on files, as the conditions
 for which it was added shouldn't apply under a properly constructed rule.
