Since I learned the exact same thing about contracts being supposed to be a “meeting of the minds” in the first week of Contracts in law school (and much of the rest of Contracts was rules that have been developed operationalizing that principle), while I would agree with your “HN is not law school...” rant as a general rule, I don’t think its germane to the quoted statement.

The problem is that people here tend to take a true generalization and form incorrect conclusions from it in the absence of proper legal education. That’s why I advise caution.
