I don’t like this because I like the usability for private contracts and the lack of need for the explicit “pledge” term.
The explicit "pledge" term could be "intent to make a pledge" instead. I can think of at least one example ("outside the statute of limitations" as it were) in which I promised to do something, with no intent, and then did not do it. Don't want people to be caught. The second thing is because if "publicly-made" (you're right, the spelling of that word is one I'm not great at) pledges can pledge to do something privately communicated under the latest CFJ I think that circumvents the rule's intent. Obviously if that's fine as a matter of policy it's fine as a matter of policy. Honestly I just want to spend five shinies with great speed.
