I choose to believe that the exclusion of Provision 5 from Irish law is because the Irish know that you don't mess with Fey bargains.

Not sure how I feel about contractually obligating myself not to enter into a pact with a Fey creature, but I've written enough contracts to appreciate some creativity in a T&C.
