Can you imagine a customer writing new terms of service and sending it to the company and expecting it to become a binding contract if they don’t immediately cancel the subscription?

I could have sworn this is actually legal, in the sense of "silence is acknowledgement". I mean, isn't it the point of negotiation? One side pass proposals, the other side has to react.

Yeah but this is after terms were agreed to.

So imagine you shook hands on terms, then one side walked away and whispered “sike I had my fingers crossed here are the real terms” and then it’s on you to catch that and react.

Unfortunately, the terms had terms in them to allow them to change the terms.
