The thing is I read 5E57 as allowing just that kind of modification via
Contract, IF the Contract specifies that it should be so.

Rules: You can modify the game in any way allowed by the rules.
Rules: You can modify a contract by whatever mechanism is specified in the
contract.
Contract: You can modify this contract by modifying the rules in manner X.

I think that works, considering the precise wording in 5E57. "Contracts may
be modified [...] in any [...] way allowed by that Contract."

To me that sounds like the rules explicitly state that a Contract can do
whatever it says is necessary for modifying itself. So this doesn't
contravene 5E10.
