Since when is having vulnerable hardware the business of the operating system? Sure, they're allowed to do whatever they want, but it's stupid. It's your system. You should be able to try to run any software you want on it and the software shouldn't care (unless it just literally can't work, not a software check to make it not work).
I'm on Linux only though, so I may be biased. I think I own my computer and you may not agree with that.
