I understand that this sort of disclaimer is used with 99.999% of all software. It says that if it breaks, it's not authors fault. If this directness is bad then there is always option to use programs accompanied with 10.000+ lawyer words EULA essays that say basically the same thing, but doesn't leave troublesome impression because nobody ever reads them :)
