A comment on Contracts you should never sign. Parent comment
Their honor or lack of it is irrelevant to you having honor.
> They're likely banking on that sense of honor to make you hold yourself to obligations they can't legally hold you to.
The honorable choices are:
1. agree to the clause, and stick to your agreement
2. negotiate to remove the clause
3. walk away from the deal
The dishonorable choice is:
4. cross your fingers behind your back when signing it, and later saying "neener neener whatcha going to do about it?" when you renege
You get to choose. It's entirely up to you.
