This is interesting, but I don't see any explanation for why this is helpful. Obviously, the author feels that curly quotes are better typographically, but acknowledges that straight quotes are used in legal documents. They never explicitly lay out any reasoning why one should pay attention to this, but instead have more of a how-to guide. Is there any direct reason for this, aside from the author's particular sense of aesthetics?
