Sure, there's that, especially if smallco wants to do business with bigco.
Two entities on equal footing could certainly negotiate things.

Yeah, seems it's always about the legal counsel. Their job is to
tell you about 'risks'. Your job is to make a decision, even if
that decision is to tell them to shut up for once and go prepare
for the risk that you're about to ignore.

And where are the lawyers telling you that you should probably
*not* keep these records because you're incompetent and the risk
is that someone will sue you individually or as a class when you
screw it up? Probably off cashing the fees you paid them for the
first conversation.
