Secretive courts are unaccountable courts.
Let's say an arbitration court lawyer made a billion-dollar judgement in a corporation's favour, then the corporation offered the lawyer a position as an "expert legal advisor" paying a million dollars a year for very little work. I wouldn't turn down that offer if I was the lawyer, and I wouldn't hesitate to make that offer if I was the corporation.
