I think the correct statement is that ACBL got told by hired legal counsel that they had negotiated a poor contract. But to be honest, I am not sure I can imagine the ACBL management (or anyone who doesn't have good prior knowledge about the issues) hiring an outside lawyer who knows enough about software. In fact, I am not sure they could afford one.
Arguably, any contract that you don't understand is a poor one. More significant, the ACBL reached a point where they wanted to renegotiate elements of the contract and discovered that they had zero leverage. (Moreover, I don't think that they understood this either)
