The courts should not tolerate hidden clauses in pages of legalese that literally no one, not even lawyers reads. If you have a misleading claim advertised that the buyer is more likely to see, then your hidden clause is invalidated.

Yeah, I don't see why they tolerate it. Judges are people too and they know damn well that people can't be expected to read every TOS they're asked to agree to.
