Humorous aside: I understand why you keep saying “(not legal advice!)”. A shame we’ve come to the point that being helpful must be attended by a disclaimer.

Ah, I'm just being a little humorous - I've been reading a lot of Matt Levine's columns, and he uses that as a little funny parenthetical to illustrate that even the best read on the law might end up being completely wrong. So he drops a disclaimer to point out that no one should ever rely on what he's saying, and I've just picked it up as an affectation, it seems.
