It's so easy to incorporate it should always be done. I assume when someone starts working with that kind of money and has knowledgeable lawyers advising them that they'll be told to do that.

The point is that signing a contract for personal liability negates the incorporation.
Incorporating without sufficient capital makes it almost trivial to "pierce the veil" of incorporation and go directly after the company's owners.
That seems somewhat backward, because it would discourage those with limited assets from starting businesses and trying to improve their situation.
