Create or Destroy Water 5e 2024 vs. 2014 edition differences

The 2024 version specifies creating water in open containers or rain in a 30-foot cube, and destroying water in open containers or fog in a cube, adding clarity. The 2014 version only states creating or destroying water without these specific methods. The higher-level effect wording is similar.
