Probably offtopic, but some time ago I've spent some time on acquiring
licenses of commercial software and read them to find the tricky
points. (It was just for fun since I do not use non-free software.)
For some mechanical CAD program, the license says that the result of the
calculations done by the software should not be trusted and if something
designed with the program goes wrong the user is responsible. It's
explicitly stated that the user should recalculate everything by hand
after using the program. It's really sad that nearly none of the users
read the license :)
