“There is no cloud it’s just [computers]”

Since “cloud” is actually a marketing term (usually meaning virtualized servers), any company or department who says no to any mention of using the cloud is showing willful ignorance.

If you know you don’t know enough, demanding paper documents makes sense. It takes quite a bit of study and knowledge to determine that a “cloud document” cannot be changed or altered after submission (and by whom).
Or the ability to trust subject-matter experts who know better than you.
One thing judges know is how they can get burned by experts - and they know to whom the liability falls if something goes wrong.
