Lease language about 'wear and tear' just cost my client 12k

Landlord in RiNo pointed to a single clause about carpet scuffs from rolling chairs and hit my tenant with a 12k bill, so has anyone else seen this vague wording get abused in Denver leases and actually won a fight over it?

Carpet scuffs aren't wear, they're damage, so maybe your client learned a cheap lesson about signing vague leases.

And that's how most fights start, nobody reads the fine print until it's too late.

Used to think it was all common sense, but @king.andrew is right about the fine print part.
