It’s not hard to read and it’s pretty clear. IMHO it’s better than most ELUA text I’ve seen.

Besides with the scale at which this site is growing it would be STUPID of them NOT to put up something like this. At the bare minimum it’s protecting their asses from liability if/when someone decides to sue them. They can’t point to that text and say this is what/why we took the actions we did.
