I can't speak for the board but I'm pretty sure you're confusing legal
constraints with the boards view.  They don't write the law and I suspect
at least some of them don't much like the laws they find themselves
operating in.

I'd strongly recommend if you find anything you don't understand to
discuss it with your lawyer.  I'm a tech guy, not a legal guy so I don't
bother pretending to understand how the law works.
