Indeed it is almost always when a mac has had the logic board replaced/repaired.
It does occur.
Sometimes even a new batch of macs may ship without serial numbers or even with a system profiler depicting the wrong system. It's pretty rare, but does happen, so it may not be the best thing to tie in to for a software licensing scheme. You'd be much better off being a bit more generous or at least trusting with your licensing. Apple is certainly pretty fair about putting most of their software on a good faith licensing scheme.
Heck, they're not even to stringent about academic pricing!
You might consider using something more reliable for licensing like simply hashing the customer's name and purchase date or other info.
