Depends on your legal system. It doesn't have to be letter of the law, which is how the US operates, leading to abominations of phrasing like "damages including but not limited to foo, bar, baz" etc. In other jurisdictions, spirit of the law is good enough, so you can just write "damages" and something like a reasonable person test is applied. Example: In the US, rent agreements can be dense, 30 page affairs and still be legally binding. In Europe or Australia, 5 pages or less usually suffices, and longer documents may simply be ruled unreasonable.
