I’m by no means a lawyer but when I look at the text of contracts (and especially the kind of “contracts” that I click through without reading), I wonder “what’s the point?”.
When a dispute over a contract ends up in court, is there usually anyone for whom it wouldn’t be better if the contract fit on a single sheet of paper? Obviously no normal person likes having to pay someone a lot of money simply to know on your behalf what you’ve agreed to. But surely even lawyers would have a less stultifying job if disputes were about substance rather than, like, whether “the landlord” is the same as “the Landlord”?
