There aren't many choices like these. Should I avoid letting you know the difference between open and closed style of comma use?

You favour the serial comma, which is fine, unless there are official requirements telling you otherwise. Some say it is superfluous.
Comma use is a heavily debated topic amongst editors. It has been for decades, if not centuries. Just figure out how to avoid outright misuse and you'll be fine.

That's the beauty of it. It won't overwhelm you.
