Ad folks, is it pretty common, boiler plate language in an RFP from a brand to say that they have the right “to use any and all systems, ideas or adaptations of ideas” that are part of the pitch?

It feels like it’s a unwritten rule that you can’t use ideas from an agency that you reject in an RFP, but I’ve never seen it blatantly called out in the RFP sent over that the brand can use anything from the pitch as they please.

When drafting a brief or other submissions for court or arbitration, do you use words such as clearly, erroneously, etc. to emphasize certain points? Our managing partner says that we should, but all of the writing guides for litigators that I've read repeats the mantra "show, don't tell" and explain that most judges dread such words.

I know that the politically correct thing to do here is to do whatever the managing partner wants me to do, but I just wanted to ask for other ppl's opinion.
