Actually I think /u/logicalmonster really did basically understand me correctly. I just kind of ignored the post because it was weirdly hysteric while acting like I was the hysteric one (e.g. "Is this the hill you really want to fight for in life?").
My point was really just that there should be a few standard simple ways that all businesses _must_ accept for the ending of contracts. /u/logicalmonster seems to think there is value in allowing businesses to not honor such requests because it is "reasonable for businesses to (for the most part) pick and choose how they conduct business". I disagree. I see no value in such a policy and think that my recommendations would make for better economic value.
If your gym won't accept cancellation via every conceivable communication method on Earth: carrier homing pigeons, telegrams, smoke signals, braille, singing telegrams and morse code, sign language, or interpretive dance routines, then they should be thrown in prison.
How dare they pick and choose that some methods of communication are more valid than others.

Why are you pretending that I'm arguing something I am not?
