My dude I am an attorney that has written these contracts. You aren’t getting it. That’s fine. It certainly doesn’t take a bloody revolution to get better consumer protections and it absolutely isn’t scummy to exploit the terms of the contract to the fullest extent allowable under the contract — as the OP has — as a consumer. This contract has already been written by the business to benefit them to the furthest extent they think they could get away with and they will be more than happy to use it for their benefit as much as is allowed. This is how this works.
