I have no problem with your logic so long as it is applied uniformly to all of society. By that I mean society must abolish copyright, patents and all forms of intellectual property. Otherwise I'll be forced to defend lawyers in this case. Why can people hoard "IP" but lawyers can't hoard contracts?

I don't think that is the point he is making.

More that lawyers will hoard contracts but there will be financial incentives to defect early (the idea being to sell your contracts while the price is high).

Then that lawyer's contracts will become the mass-produced "good enough" boilerplate and be used widely driving down the value of hoarding contracts at all.
