Basically, in many states in the USA, you can't sell or lease something that will become worthless or unusable if the seller or leasor no longer exists.

CAD software is mostly leased these days. That would seem to contradict your position. Can you quote some laws which say that leasing software is illegal?

Not only that but you can charge less :-)
