Not sure where you got that from. Are you suggesting this in general, or as something peculiar to FDA?

I've spend a lot of time poring over Apple's EULAs for their OS software, and believe me, they are NOT part of the device. You own the device, you never own Apple's software. You own a licences to use it.

FDA is not Apple. Apple and MS have to match their language with reality. In this instance, however, reality must bend to match the FDA.
