I don't see how this makes any difference whatsoever. A person entering into the agreement in this manner would either have to agree to the Right Hand, forgoing eir R101(v) right to not be considered bound by it, or else e would be agreeing to everything in the Left Hand *except* clause 0, meaning that e has really not agreed to be bound by the Left Hand at all. This again leads back to the conclusion that the two are separate components of a single agreement. -root
