I think the thinking (I'm not defending it) in some circles is that the courts are slow and expensive. Anything that keeps disagreements out of the courts is a win for society. If accidentally run into your mailbox, rather than requiring you to sue me, we can come to an agreement outside the courts. This is much more efficient.

But it should never, ever be required to sign away your rights for redress in the courts as part of any agreement. Or it should always be a separate agreement from any other, that can be signed or not depending on if both parties have the same view of the court system, without affecting other business between them.
