I can’t parse this—Robin seems to be saying that David is saying that, if Robin thinks that “abusive terms” should be allowed in credit card contracts because they are mutually agreed to, that this requires Robin to postulate “such a thing”, where “such a thing” is, um, something beyond ordinary ignorance. I can’t resolve which claim of David’s Robin is referring to when he says David claims Robin must postulate this thing.
I don’t see the point of contact with the argument. Or an answer to the direct question as to whether the problem is asymmetric information.
I would think that, if Robin believed the problem was asymmetric information, that would not require anything beyond ordinary ignorance. Since he ascribes that explanation to David, I infer that Robin does not believe the problem is asymmetric information.
