And it needs to be, because being specific could run into legal issues, such as if you require the server binaries to be available, you're now violating copyright. The law should specify the result, not the process to get there.
The law is specifying the end user result. Keep the game we bought available to play in the way we bought it.
Questions about server binaries and copyright are implementation details for companies to work out.
That's not specific "the way we bought it" could be argued to require servers to be kept running and no company will take actions to put themselves in a position to get sued.
