Ambiguities result in increased litigation expense. Each argument over what a term means or how it should be interpreted is very expensive. These kinds of disagreements often need to be resolved early in the case by expensive motion practice.

It is much cheaper if both sides are willing to stipulate that they are in agreement with what the terms mean. Then you can get to fact finding and settlement talks with less upfront cost.
