how to align the list?

0I clicked?? on this forums' what I think is hyperlink that said "learn English Letter Writing Grammar and Pronunciation" and saw this thing pop up and upon reading it, it got me thinking how best to align that or if it is aligned in the best way possible.02br

00pop-up:02br
02br
00Learn and explore the English language with topics such as poetry, stories, ..., essay composition, and general chit chat02br
02br
01i00poetry02i00 and uncountable OK02br
02br
01i00stories02i00 and a plural countable OK with uncountable nouns02br
02br
01i00essay composition02i00 as a countable noun, Not OK??02br
02br
01i00chit chat02i00 as uncountable OK 02br
02br
00When you have a list like this, should we make every effort to align them or is there room to deviate?? like what I think is in the above case (essay composition being the one deviated)?0-

0If a list includes countable and non-count nouns (and here, 01i00composition02i00 is non-count), there is no way to make them more parallel than they are (i.e. they are all nouns):02br
