You are right that some of terms are necessary in order for us to legally operate the Exchange, and some are meant as protection against being sued in the event that we include features in future versions of our products which are similar to features that that were enabled through code uploaded into the Exchange. Basically, it's a simple precaution. Lawyers leave nothing to chance.
