I have a theory...
The Freemen look around and see that the world appears to be run by means of legal chicanery, little of which they understand. They feel helpless and lost in the face of this gargantuan machine of State.
So when someone proposes some theory which:
a) contains legal-sounding words, and
b) posits that these Freemen can use their own brand of legal chicanery to magic their way out of their debts
... then they latch on to it with gusto, proudly parroting back the legal-sounding nonsense because it helps them feel better about the vast, dark horror of life in the modern world.
EDIT: also, what jtolmar said.
