IANAL either, but if you go to a lawyer (as a freelancer/contractor) for a contract they're basically going to take one off the shelf and hand it to you. They might change one or two lines to be specific to the type of work you do, or run it through a couple if-else conditions that aren't relevant to everybody. But in the few times I've dealt with contracts the boilerplate percentage was well above your 90% mark.

You could theoretically say the same thing about a CRUD app
good point - the 90% though was not referring to a single contract but overall the share of contracts that could be dealt with via a framework.
