Liability clause
The liability clause you see there is no different (or very little different) than what you will see in your MS Office license. No software vendors take any liability beyond the cost of the software or data guarantees. And given how often (not very often, but enough) I hear of coworkers losing data to corrupted Word documents, MS couldn't afford to take liability, either.
