An [[incluso|''in''cluso]], by contrast, states that proposition, and then illustratively ''repeats'' it, bearing useful confirmation only to those who enjoy miscellany or are afflicted by [[profound ontological uncertainty|doubt]] as to whether you meant what you said in the first place:

A well crafted [[incluso]] will drag into contemplation items which no ordinary reading of the general principle could possibly have anticipated.

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 weaseling ''into'' a ''whole new obligation'' that neither party possibly could have had in mind when discussing the original trade.

*'''The nested incluso''': A seasoned practitioner will enjoy the ''nested'' incluso, where one redundant elucidation is embedded into another “the Client shall be obliged to pay the Bank’s costs including without limitation, filing fees, the costs of realisation and enforcement of collateral and associated professioonal fees, including those of legal and consulting advisors ...” — we can see at once that this way a rabbit-hole lies, and down it the theoretical possibility of an unbroken chain of ever-smaller inclusos, stretching out into an infinite panoply of parenthetical asides; a kind of [[fractal]] geometry of scale-invariant pointlessness, whose existence in this universe is only really hindered by the draftsperson’s outright fear that, far from the sky falling on his head instead some unseen warping of the  very fabric of semantic space will swallow him up and regurgitate him in some remote corner of the lexiverse, as a spume of incandescent flannel.
If you were a weasel playing ''[[Defender]]'', this would be like hitting the [[hyperspace]] button.
*'''The [[provuso]]''': 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 neither party possibly could have had in mind when discussing the original trade, while at the same time yourself wriggling out of your basic economic commitment.
