In principle I agree, our professionals (lawyers) would have liked to have the text displayed plus a checkbox, and this is the compromise.
It would perhaps be less confusing to actually have a 2nd (well 1st) check box for the contributor terms, and use a different text for the "Agree" button, "Continue" (and relabel the Decline button too, which we should do in any case as accepting the ToU is mandatory for everybody that gets shown the term screen now, so for the 1-2 people per year from pre-licence change and actually click decline, that option won't do anything reasonable any more).
