That actually doesn't matter. You could have exercised your R101(v) rights with respect to every contract in the chain simultaneously, had you been so inclined. Since you didn't, you are bound by the contracts with your full consent, and so R101(v) is no longer usable, and so R1742 binds you with full effect, and so you are culpable under Agoran law.
