We negotiate a contract with terms favorable to you.  You sign it (or more
correctly, sign the SHA-1 hash of the document).

I then take your signed copy, take out the contract, splice in a different
version with terms favorable to me.  Since the hash didn't change, your
signature on the second document remains valid.

I present it in court, and the judge says "you signed it, you're stuck with
the terms you signed".

I think that would count as "invalidates documents signed by SHA-1", don't you?
