Oh yes I forgot to add rice notes. This is all true. Brown rice goes rancid fast and has the other issues you mention. Long term storage should be cooll, dark, and ideally in an container from which oxygen has been removed.

Also you can cook rice at a low temperature in the oven to prevent insect issues. The downside of this is that you have to use the rice sooner as this process destabilizes some of the aromatics. You can also freeze + thaw the rice but you have to be careful to not allow moisture to remain in it.
