The joyous expression first found voice in the 1987 ISDA and somewhat undercuts JC’spet theory that the absurd prolixity of modern commercial drafting is the fault of word processing. There wasn’t any word processing in 1986. It was all typewriters, carbon paper and Tipp-Ex.

Anyhow, you would like to think as the generations rolled on ISDA’s crack drafting squad™ could do something to improve a passage with a quintuple negative, wouldn’t you? Even, if, bloody-mindedly, to add a sixth negative, just to underline how scanty is the damn they give about the neurotic whinings of those, like JC, who are always simpering on about more economical expressions. In your face, prose stylists, such a stance might say. Actually, since I’m here, have a fricking seventh negative, punk, and brand it on your forehead so all who look upon you will know who it was who schooled you.

We can but dream, possums. We can only imagine what might have been. but no; they left the ghastly tract inviolate.
