From what I saw in the discussion, the main thing seems to be that Nick is assuming most LRHs are free-riders
The bias expressed in the term "free-riders" is not really appropriate for this discussion. When presented with multiple options which provide substantially the same outcome, most organisations will take the simplest and easiest option. In this case, this option will be not to sign or pay anything. This will not represent a weakness on the part of the LRHs who decline to sign or pay. It will simply be an acknowledgement that of all the options presented in the proposal, it will be by far the easiest option to take and the end result for the resource holder will be almost exactly the same.
