E's not making the contract into a contest. E's specifying a possible contract that already is a contest. "Without 3 objections" does not require the participation of non-parties; rather it allows intervention. If I non-furtively announced intent to perform such an action and for one reason or another nobody noticed, I could perform the action without any participation or even awareness from anybody else at all. -root
