Don't forget the "major" version increment that breaks "lifetime".

Oh, you're mistaken. The license is for the lifetime of version 32. To use version 33 you must upgrade. But no rush, you have until version 33.1 before we activate the kill switch.

Or they rebrand it, and pull the "lifetime is only to the end of the product lifetime" trick.
