It's just their reality. I've dealt with chinese business, and they take their constraints with great attention, even if they personally don't care or even are against.
We have the same with copyrighted stuff: we have to be extra careful to not include an image, a font or a text paragraph where we shouldn't, even by mistake, or the consequences could be catastrophic. They take copyright less seriously, and I'm sure they also feel we are weird for having such constraints.
