We promise we won’t do anything illegal and worth suing us over, so just waive your right to sue us!
This is a massive oversight in a country’s code of law.

Preventing others from bringing you to justice via lawsuits implies to me they intend to do something illegal to them.
You could be charitable and say arbitration is a cost saving mechanism for lawsuits you successfully defend yourself from (the loser doesn’t pay your legal fees in some countries).
