Soda acid? That sounds sketchy for oil fires.

I remember we practiced a question about defect classification, and I think a list of open defects is definitely useful. Could the chart about lag time be considered extraneous?

Ah, the zipper clause. I'm pretty confident that it means the contract can be "zipped open" to make changes as needed, rather than being set in stone. I'll mark that as my answer.
