When they say that "they have an army of lawyers" or that Disney has more lawyers than animators and things like that, do they tho? Is an army of lawyers really effective? Do companies actually have an "army" of lawyers to redact and sign documents?

I genuinely don't know why people use that obviously charged acronym instead of just NAL.

Exactly! How else would I get to preface a comment with "anal" in uppercase? I need an acronym that includes "penis" or "boobs" and is annoying to pedants. Maybe it could be CPENIS for "Caution: Pedants Exasperatingly Nitpicking In Stubbornness", and it's pronounced "see penis" so it's even dirtier.
