B2B contracts are different, though, because they are effectively between equals, in a way employment contracts are not.

The legal department usually tries to tell us differently and gives the same kinds of arguments as they would give for the 'non-standard' employment contract. "You are only a small company and every other company accepts these conditions". "Only manager X of small department Y wants to do business with you: we won't change our conditions just for them". "The contract is only for few$, we can't do specials for that". But in the end the wishes of someone in the business are more important and conditions can be changed to satisfy both parties.
