I don't know anything about this personal drama other than recognizing the name from Catmull–Clark subdivision surfaces, but one thing it sort of reminds me of is how contracts are ultimately sort of worthless. If a person wants to try and screw you in some way, regardless of the words on a contract, they'll try and screw you. If a person wants to do the right thing, regardless of what a contract obligates them to do, they'll go the extra mile every time. I have contracts with my cofounders of course, but the safety I feel really comes from knowing how they function as people in their personal lives.
