It's technically legal -- the best kind of legal!

  No. Fuck that shit. When the spirit of the law and the letter of the law conflict, I want us as humans to be able to step back and say that, hey, it doesn't make sense when you put it that way, and ignore the rules and do what's actually right.

    As someone living in a country with common law and having taking business law 101 (so certainly NAL) this sometimes ends up being a bit of a guessing game as to how a judge will interpret jurisprudence. There's a lot of room for improvement in legal systems and they move extremely slow due to the political nature of things.

      totally, which is why we go to a jury of peers for things

      wouldn't you rather the 50/50 chance for some _seemingly_ impartial person to intepret a deal, than have to pay a lawyer more than somethings worth to enforce some complex 500 page word salad to keep a business run by a person whose dones this hundreds of times before?

    Ah yes the cornerstone of any stable judiciary - "ignore the rules and do [what I want]."
