I can actually buy a car, I can't buy a font. You want to trick me into believing I can buy that font but in reality I'm buying some nebulous license to use it. I have no right to repair that font I have no right to alter that font I have no right to take the font that I have and resell that to another person.
So idiotic comparisons are still idiotic. If you actually sell it and give me the rights of ownership like I get with a car then we'll actually talk.
