Hallo!
Ganz einfach: Weil Pete Dowson es so festgelegt hat.
Hier ein Zitat aus dem Thread 'PAYING FOR FSUIPC ... the Why and How' aus dem
FSUIPC-Support Forum:
Zitat:
What you get if you pay:
* Facilities for joystick calibration, some fancy assignments, and button programming.
* Key press programming facilities
* A few frills like locking FS panel parts in place, removing unwanted spikes from controls (as generated, for instance, by some panels), and other assorted facilities.
* Weather filtering options including wind, pressure and visibility smoothing, but ONLY for global weather. This may be less important now, with FS2004's full local weather system operating in a much smoother way than in previous releases.
* Automatic access for all compatible application programs whether they are accredited or not. No access keys are required for programs to use a fully registered user copy of FSUIPC. This may come in especially useful for programs which are no longer maintained by their developer and therefore not likely to become accredited.
* The possibility of additional user options to come. There are a few on my list, but I cannot guarantee any until I get to them and study the implications. I am also open to requests and suggestions, as in fact I have been over that last four years -- that is how FSUIPC has become what it is.
* Support from myself for any queries or problems arising from the use of FSUIPC, or identifiable as FSUIPC even when using an application. I would still expect the application developer to be the prime support for his own application, and it is easier for him to sort out FSUIPC interfacing problems with me rather than between the user and me, if you see what I mean.
* All updates for two years, or the date of the next version of FS whenever that is.
* All this for at least the life of FS2004, provided I live that long. I cannot guarantee to continue this into and beyond FS2006 or whatever, that would really be asking too much.

Farbliche Hervorhebung von mir.
Aber grundsätzlich vermutlich schlicht und einfach deswegen, weil es Arbeit ist, so ein Programm zu programmieren.
