So let me point out a scenario that isn't far-fetched at all. guy buys the game, installs it (install 1). then he decides to upgrade his video card (install 2), but after a week, it dies and he needs to send it back to get replaced. in the meantime, he goes back to his other card (install 3) while waiting for his replacement. replacement gets there, he puts it in (install 4) and needs to contact ubisoft because he has gone past his activation limit on a single pc.
i've had video cards die nearly out of the box. it's not super-common, but it does happen, and it would be even more annoying after sitting on tech support with company x and them asking you asinine questions for half an hour to then have to call ubi and make them give you more installs for the game you only installed once.
Hitting on girls with subliminal video game titles is surprisingly effective
