That example is the same in the german translation. But at p. 172 
(“Horizontale Ausrichtung von Pausen → Ganztaktige Pausen”, i. e. 
“Horizontal positioning of rests → full measure rests”) she writes 
something like “If the rest measure contains a clef, key signature or 
time signature, one has to center the rest in the remaining space”, see 
attachment.

So Gould is inconsistent here ;)

Yes, that’s what I find strange too.
