I'm curious what the reason for including this, because at the end of the day its a string of text (tokens) going into a function and it spitting out another string of text.

They probably have labelers who are approaching ick level invasive reviews of clause transcripts and need to protect them like FBI agents who need to sort through child porn abuse.
