So these things keep appearing in contracts but everyone seems to say they're totally unenforceable so... Why do they keep appearing in contracts?
If it's not illegal to add, the only risk is bad press coverage, and it might prevent someone from suing in the first place because they don't know their rights.
Except in several states if any of the contract is invalid it all is.
That’s not a common thing in American contracts. Severability clauses take care of that.
