Lawyer here also (though not actively practicing) and I agree with your thoughtful comment about. I’ve negotiated lots of commercial agreements, and it’s surprising that lawyers still spend time redlining basic things like severance clauses, integration clauses, etc. There’s no real benefit from much of the back-and-forth. It’d be great to have trusted, open source “standard legalese” terms. That way the parties could focus on the contract’s meaningful parts and say something like “This Agreement incorporates by reference the Standard Legal Terms at xyzterms.org.” And of course you could have different versions for various states and industries.
