Does the quantity of lawyers actually makes a difference? (lemmy.ml)

When they say that "they have an army of lawyers" or that Disney has more lawyers than animators and things like that, do they tho? Is an army of lawyers really effective? Do companies actually have an "army" of lawyers to redact and sign documents?

IANAL, but I watch a lot of legal eagle on nebula.

It's about research capacity. Finding applicable case law can take a fair amount of time. Maybe less with AI, unless you start citing the AI case law https://duckduckgo.com/?q=AI+generated+case+law, but you need to know how other cases went, if you want to create a successful strategy for your own case.

I genuinely don't know why people use that obviously charged acronym instead of just NAL.

Exactly! How else would I get to preface a comment with "anal" in uppercase? I need an acronym that includes "penis" or "boobs" and is annoying to pedants. Maybe it could be CPENIS for "Caution: Pedants Exasperatingly Nitpicking In Stubbornness", and it's pronounced "see penis" so it's even dirtier.
