No one may believe me.  BMW certainly wouldn't, and wouldn't care what I do.

However, the next time I upgrade my Beemer, if there are add-on's on the bike that BMW charges a premium to use, I won't upgrade.  I'll either move to a new-to-me older model, or switch brands.  It's not even about the money, but just like BMW charging a boatload of money for a DVD manual, or even refusing to release that information to the public, it's about the moral principle involved.
