How is this in any way different than MS and Windows Home vs Premium vs Ultimate? The code / SW you purchase is exactly the same no matter which version you buy, but MS markets them as entirely different products.

Sure, you could go in and hack your way through and patch things up to unlock it, but most people don't have the time for that.
