Imagine the court case:

Your honour, in my defence, the contract clearly specified that anyone could reset the wallet, and if that's not what they wanted, they shouldn't have agreed to it.

I cannot imagine the court case. The courts are utterly incapable of understanding enough of the technical aspects of far simpler software cases.

So like most court cases, it will simply be a matter of human influence winning the case.

If you are interested in a really good counter example to your assertion you should look at Judge Alsup https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20170325/23492137003/judge...
