Some people in the comments claim CS was used for compliance reasons. Some others claim Windows & CS do not offer warranties. How can a product satisfy the compliance check-box, if it does not offer the warranty and not accept liability for the related features?

While software is often warranted, contracts won't often accept liability in terms of business damages etc, and that's not usually a requirement for compliance.

If it was, it would also make it impractical for a small business to contract with a large one because of risk.
