Few will notice or appreciate that disparity you point out, even though
it's a very valid one...Just like the folks who ignore the "Part 15" caveat
on
thier "consumer electroics" devices at home who get "stepped on" by a
licensed
transmitter ("those !@#$%^ hams"...regardless of what service is the
culprit)
and then demand the FCC "do something" about "them".

That's because they're not educated about how things work. Of course,
education
costs time and money, and educated customers are harder to please.

Mostly money.

A one or two page pamphlet of what can be expected couldn't cost more than
a few extra cents to include in the device.

Of course if the consumer KNEW what they really needed to, they might
demand that the things be properly engineered and manufactured in the first
place!
