Sure. So why do we need DKIM to authenticate contracts?

Because, without DKIM, a dishonest party can repudiate the email. Just as a written contract is superior to an oral contract, a non repudiable written contract is superior to a repudiable written contract.

So maybe digitally sign the contracts instead of unwillingly sign every single email you send?

You didn't answer it. In which scenario Amazon would deny sending an email and you would be protected by DKIM?
