A legal agreement is one document, sure. But a large scale legal operation like a sale of a company must consist of thousands of documents that are changing in concert, right? Wouldn't that be a case for a more comprehensive and consistent change control process?

No, the sale of a company is governed by the one sale agreement.

That is correct. Nothing can be incorporated by reference. The closest you can get are attachments which must be incorporated by the time the document is executed.
