Oh no, it's not pointless. It's just doublespeak.

It exists so there's a way to respond to demands like 'no criticizing Israel', or 'Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory', or double negatives like 'no not agreeing to automated droning'.

Because if you do not have a way to agree with these, your business can and wil be targeted and shut down.
