Network based license solutions don't work when you have to go radio silent as part of normal operations.

Nobody wants to have people shooting at them and the screen saying "connection to license server lost, please try again".



Agreed. I was responding to hashkb as to why they might think they could install it widely without having more than 38 licenses. It also seems like a valid reason to ask for the phone-home mechanism to be removed without malicious intent to subvert licensing restrictions.
