Yeah, in any contract case, it’s not so simple. There is almost always a way to get in a discussion about what the parties intended if there is any ambiguity about a material term, and sometime even if there isn’t. Reality usually butts heads with those business law classes you took. A good judge won’t admit outside evidence about a term if the contract is clear; sadly, I find good judges who are strict about such things more and more rare.

Totally agreed on that.
