A. To protect English manufacturers of woolen goods both against American and Irish competition, England passed the Woolens Act of 1698

B. In order to protect English manufacturers of woolen goods against both American and Irish competition, England passed the Woolens Act of 1698

C. In order to protect English manufacturers of woolen goods against American, as well as against Irish, competition, the Woolens Act of 1698 was passed by England

D. For protecting English manufacturers of woolen goods against American, as well as Irish, competition, England passed the Woolens Act of 1698

E. For the protection of English manufacturers of woolen goods against both American and Irish competition, the Woolens Act of 1698, passed by England

请问BD除了表示目的用to do比较好以外，红字部分的表述有没有差别？

b是both American and Irish competition还是both American competition and Irish competition比较好？

我通过google来搜索这个问题的答案
搜索关键词用British 来代替Irish

        找到了 “both British and American speakers”
             “Both American and British English styles graded from easy to hard for solving online”
               “both American and British news presenters.”
               “both British and American settings concerns academic engagement with "real world" issues”

Knovel Speaks Both American English and British English.

        both American and British English,搜索到非常多

我下个结论，这二者的表达不会有什么大的差别吧，但是对于长句子肯定习惯用省略了前者后面的将和第二者一致的东西，就是考虑了简洁明了咯

请拍砖
