Wouldn't this lead to a two class society, much like the accredited investors for startups? E.g. if you have a task to do for which you have to reveal secrets, how do you protect your moat without non-compete clauses if you hire employees or contractors? In other words, you need people who are allowed to sign away their rights. If you don't allow this as a default state, you have to hand out licenses to those who understand the issue. Right now, you have the concept of Age of Majority [1]. We simply assume that everybody who is old enough is capable of understanding his rights. If you question this, you will have a funny presidential campaign where you ask people to vote for you because they are not competent enough. That said, how is the president the right person to change that law? [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_majority https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_majority
