I can only think it must be analagous to why programs have a lot of features people don't understand or use. Git might be a case in point. Smart programmers think of every possible edge case and "what if" and try to cover all those things. The result is a confusing mess for people who just want to get the "happy path" work done. Lawyers try to think of every interpretation and circumstance and try to be sure the agreement addresses those unambiguously. Ironically, the dense language that results is anything but unambiguous to the untrained reader.
