Jim,
You have obviously spent sometime around the US legal scene.
The biggest thing I see is intent. The legal mumbo-jumbo is explicitly
designed to obscure intent. My intent was to buy this product and
use it to open a can of beans. Simple. No - they want to muddy this
with all sorts of liability stuff, and if possible get you to throw away
your rights provided under enacted legislation. (This boggles my
mind, in the UK your statury rights remain, no matter what it says in
the contract specifically to avoid this sheenanegans).
So if the product fails to open the can of beans they can point to
all kinds of mitigating reasons why not, that were your fault, (as an
uninitiated consumer who had never opened a can of beans before).
Then, the final rub, as you noted, turn around and sue you for sueing
them because you wrongly insinuated their product does not open
cans of beans.
You are not in Kansas now, Toto.
By tracking consumer intent we will be making a giant step forward
in unravelling this Gordonian Knot.
DW.

Truely remarkable, don't you think?
Thanks for the "heads up"; especially for herewith contacting the (too) few
"senior" "authorities" of companies who ply these halls, who can enlist
their
own corporation's "champions" (read lawyears"(sic)/time-billing-automatons)
to protect and defend their rights from such a "grab".
I spoke a warning of this joust of lawyers vs. "us" some time ago. There
is
some activity afoot to effect an advance of more recent decisions by the
courts that seem to have proceeded from those same courts having been
"stacked" by the political successes of conglomerate groups via PACS, etc.,
that have been having their way altering our way (read: our rights have
gotten "inefficient for a/the/some +"society"'s progress").
