They’re rules that I noticed English tends to follow
It only tends to follow them. Exceptions abound; that is not a problem for the exceptions, but for the rules. An exception is not something that fails to obey the rule, it is something the rule failed to explain.
and the rules seem to make words easier to pronounce.
I think that not all, but a lot of the causality is the other way around: whatever your native language does is easier for you.
