Lawyers and judges themselves don’t read the fine print and it would take an inordinate amount of time for people to read the fine print of every service they were offered. Nobody has time to do such things.

Which is precisely why the courts tend to view misleadingly offering something for sale in the advertisement, and then adding contradictory conditions to that sale in the fine print, as just defrauding their customers. This blame the consumer mentality is impractical, unworkable, and legally wrong.
