This is more evidence that there should be a minimum-reading-time requirement for contracts to be considered valid.

We now have the capability to algorithmically generate an estimate of how long it should take an average person to read any given text. Take something like 3/4 of that time (this value is tunable), and if a person wasn't given at least that much time to read a contract, then there patently cannot be a "meeting of the minds"[1] and the contract was never established.

This removes much of the social pressure against holding up the line, and discourages extra-long contracts. Every contract should be read and understood completely.

I tend to read everything so I usually make light of the delay involved by saying something like "I'm sending this to my attorney for review now" (at which point I put on my glasses, head down and page through the doc for while..).
