Do you pay a lawyer to help you navigate a credit card signup contract?
A new car loan?  An apartment lease contract?

I don't know, perhaps people should - those are all far more complex

And the other party holding the contract is far and away more
inimical  (epically those credit card contracts, Oy vey!)
