There is no such thing as a contract that will not have an exploitable loophole. I think what you are advocating in red is way more expensive than the potential gain that would be realized. Dealing with God is much easier, and probably costs a lot less.

Oh, and T4 is abysmal... professionally speaking.
T4?

As too the comment that it will be too costly, their percentage of the net gain on a contract as a fee, appears to be fully deductible.

IF, big if, these was ever done, the SMEs for our contract and ALPA would need to be involved.
