The idea is he loses you as a customer or meets you halfway.
I would also consider adding a short time limit as well. . to limit the company or representatives opportunity to accompany you . . .

Striking out a line and inserting new requirements without the agent's prior signature is perfectly acceptable in this case, and if its in a docusign pdf, time to create your own word document / pdf for your conditions, and have that printed and available electronically for any open house mandated buyer's agent. .

The other potential route is that passing the realtor's license exam is not that hard. Pass it and then represent yourself as a licensed broker.

YMMV
