The sign of a true legal master is the [[provuso|prov''u''so]], which is an amalgam of a [[proviso]] and an [[incluso]], a device by which one states a general principle, then caveats it so comprehensively that the end result bears no correlation at all with the originally intended. This is a way of weaselling your counterparty ''into'' a whole new obligation that it did not have in mind when discussing the original trade, while at the same time yourself wriggling out of your basic economic commitment. | The sign of a true legal master is the [[provuso|prov''u''so]], which is an amalgam of a [[proviso]] and an [[incluso]], a device by which one states a general principle, then caveats it so comprehensively that the end result bears no correlation at all with the originally intended.
