I didn't claim anyone had to agree to it. I'm curious if my LIMITS ON
COPYING would be legal and reasonable.

It's a copyright granting limited redistribution, not a license.
The disclaimer of warranty isn't a license either, but a disclaimer. I
don't know if it would hold up in court, but DEC seems to think so and
that's good enough for me.
