Which means it's great that he's an independent. I only have a simplistic idea of what all this means, but I can certainly see the benefits of separating 'transparency' and 'unfair'. An unfair agreement is unfair no matter if it's transparent or not, and transparency shouldn't affect whether something is unfair.
