The exact change
"I have never wished I had fewer contract provisions after a client dispute. I have absolutely wished I had more. Every clause in my standard contract was added after a real situation that taught me what I should have had in writing from the start." -- IT security consultant with 14 years of freelancing experience
Experienced freelancers rarely wish they had fewer contract provisions after a client dispute, but frequently wish they had more. Each clause added to a standard contract over time tends to trace back to a real situation that revealed what should have been in writing from the start.
Suggested change
De-attributed the unverifiable anonymous quote to plain prose.
Why this is better
De-attributed a quote incorrectly attributed to an anonymous 'IT security consultant with 14 years of freelancing experience' - no verifiable source could be located. Converted to plain prose while preserving the underlying guidance.
