Not that I'd use this, but in its defense there are applications for a lightweight licensing nag screen: B2B products where your customer almost certainly isn't going to be a leet hacker and is otherwise bound by the terms of a broader contract.

Think of it like locks on doors in the professional world of business software. Helps to keep the customer honest because at the end of the day they don't actually want to violate any rules. It can be hard to keep track of all the instances of things in some enterprises. The scale of our average customer has informed us that integrated licensing functionality is ideal for some of our products.
