I can't believe people actually have this understanding of kickstarter. Maybe I've been living in a bubble, but my understanding has always been that you are basically preordering something, insofar as you're entering a contract with the party running the kickstarter involving their obligation to deliver the backer rewards. I don't think something like that needs a TOS to rewrite the law. Sure, there is a risk that the project fails and doesn't deliver, just like there's a risk that whatever company goes bankrupt between you preordering something and them finishing and shipping it.
