It appears to me that they felt this was important enough to establish a legal "tenant". Probably to protect their right to sell new homes in some way.

I do not think it was about the money, but about the principal. IMHO
1. it's a tenet, not a tenant.
2. Their right to sell new homes is already protected. It's THEIR property until it's sold, they can use who ever they want - including their own contractors - to sell on their behalf.
3. It's about the principal, alright. It's about proving to EVERYONE that you should never upset them, or they will come after you and your bank account. Even after they win a suit, they'll keep coming for more.
