I never liked that ending. You have a treaty and a bunch of expert diplomats, and none of the expert diplomats thought to read the treaty until the 11th hour?
EULAs are bullshit, but that's a different story entirely.
We're talking about a treaty, and those do get read (international law has a mountain of shortcomings, but that's also a different story). And while it's a super complex treaty in that episode, there are super complex contracts that get read and enforced even today, and we don't have the resources of the Enterprise. Imagine the Ctrl + F power on that sucker.
