C'mon guys.... every once in a while I wonder why they changed their 
warranty..... and then I don't.

There's an implication, if not directly stated...using words like 
"original purchaser" and "intended use".

We get tired of attempted abuse of warranty policies. We see a lot of 
it. It becomes a marketing strategy to accept unquestioned 
warranties, which eventually raises the price of goods to everyone.

I'm not picking on you, Allen.  It's epidemic.

Off my soap box (actually, it's cardboard, crushed, and flat on the floor)
