Idiom x and also y

Many places are called Naples - the cities in Italy and in Florida, and also a town in Clark County, South Dakota.

Why is this WRONG?

I though the idioms {x and also y}, where x = ("a" and "b") was grammatically correct.

The MGMAT book says that {x and also y} is a grammatically correct but wordier, or less preferred than (x and y)

PS: From MGMAT SC - Idioms problem set
"There's a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstance permit. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results."

Is that from MGMAT SC strategy guide? Usually many notations and statements there 100% hold true, as these have been proof-read and analyzed thousand times :) . But if this is from some specific SC entry in practice test we may need more information - sentence for example and it's answer choices. Care to complete the post?

My knowledge frontiers came to evolve the GMATPill's methods - the credited study means to boost the Verbal competence. I really like their videos, especially for RC, CR and SC. You do check their study methods at https://www.gmatpill.com

There is no sentence to correct as this is not a GMAT SC practice :/

but if it helps, it's in page 174 in the idioms problem set from MGMAT SC
"There's a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstance permit. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results."

It's correct but wordier, as they say.

The argument might be that it's wrong because of the list -- the conjunction goes before the final item in a (sub)set: I like pasta, rice, and beans, and also bread would be wrong for that reason.
