Are there any workarounds to "You can't insert a conditional rule in the middle of a list"?

Working on automating contract templates. Some elements may or may not be displayed due to the person’s hiring status. 

For instance, if Variable A = {Class 1}, we need to hide clause 2 in our document and all subsequent numbers must be adjusted. 

The best way to handle auto-numbering is to establish a list, but the conditions function does not allow this. 

Has the community found any workarounds? 

While I understand the solution might be “create a contract template for each iteration/combination,” I really don’t want to create or maintain 81 different templates for 1 of our 6 entities. Conditional logic should be designed to solve this. 

Cheers!
