as a general rule: If a full measure rest is positioned in the center
of the bar, it will *always* be written as a whole rest completely
independent of the time signature. In case you want to spell out the
rests, they should not be written as full measure rests and are
postitioned aligned vertically to their respective beat. This is
common practise and the way it's expected by musicians.
