Still, every character archetype has a weakness, and the [[Jolly Contrarian]] can reveal the innate flaw of every [[ISDA negotiator]], and that is total cluelessness about paragraph formatting in [[Microsoft Word]]. They just ''cannot'' do it. Page breaks and multi-level automatic numbering are trying enough, but asking a negotiator to format a table of {{isdaprov|Documents for Delivery}} — and every man-jack amongst them must do it — is a guaranteed disaster. | Still, every character archetype has a weakness, and the [[Jolly Contrarian]] can reveal the innate flaw of every [[ISDA negotiator]], and that is total cluelessness about paragraph formatting in [[Microsoft Word]].
