I guess that makes sense, particularly from an insurer's point of view.

An insurer will typically find any and every reason to deny a claim or pay as little as possible. It's what they do. But notice requirements typically are not unreasonable IMO.

Which is why it goes without saying that if anything happens to you for which you have insurance coverage, you should immediately notify your agent if you have one, or the insurance company.
