It's generally a mistake to take a few sentences from a legal document out of context. In the context of even the paragraph I cited (much more so in the document as a whole) it's clear what the judge is saying—he's talking about a combination of the text exchanges and the subsequent actions.

To me this makes it sound like a pattern of behaving in accordance with one term in a contract can only be explained by agreement with the contract in its entirety.
