    I think you’ve missed the point here. Because they are lawyers and not everyone else are lawyers and not every lawyer would understand every bit of legislation inside out their complaints carry more weight than an ordinary citizen. I would argue a lawyer threatening legal action is somewhat similar to a soldier drawing a gun (not because of the danger but due to their training and experience in its use).

      Maybe if they were writing to an average Joe blow i might be sympathetic to your argument but they weren’t. They were writing to a large organization with a well funded legal team. This is not David and Goliath.
