We should give some amount of acceptance to the argument that modern contractual agreements are too complex for individuals to read and understand fully. But this is entirely unacceptable as an argument from one business buying services from another business. It’s not the “fine print”, it’s the contract. If the plaintiff’s argument amounts to “I didn’t read the contract.” they will rightly be laughed out of court.

Even beyond this mis-selling does lead to losing lawsuits despite what is attempted in fine print.
