Why these and not free ones

Free templates are written to be generic, which means the clauses that matter to a freelancer are the ones missing. These include the specifics that actually decide arguments: IP transfers only on payment, a kill fee if the client walks, a liability cap tied to fees paid, a defined acceptance window so "just one more revision" has an end, and late-payment interest you can point at in writing.
