Question - is watermarking legal filings even common? How about the law firm logos in the footer?

No; this filing is very unusual. Typical practice is for legal filings to be submitted in a standardized and very plain format.

And that standardized and plain format is simply typographically ugly.

The legal profession has done better. Just look at the opinions from the Supreme Court. Single spaced, nice typeface, good margin. Hallmarks of elegant typesetting and optimized for readability. Why aren't legal filings standardized based on this format?
