Well it wasn't demonstratably false in any case, as it's the only course of action in some places.

In a perfect world these arbitration clauses wouldn't exist, and luckily they aren't enforceable in many countries.

The original comment says that these clauses should be made illegal, to which the comment I responded to objects. Objecting to change based on arguments that are only valid within the paradigm that exists before said change is nothing but a logical fallacy.

It is demonstrably false that the change has to entail the problems conjectured by the comment I responded to. Thus the counter argument is shown to be both reductionist and wrong.
