wording looks like more out of ignorance than malice. Of course the cops will enforce it strictly. The correct wording should be 'MS open license if applicable'. Or, more generally, 'proof that software used is legal'. This reminds me of visa applications in India where there is a clause asking for 'local guardian certificate'. This is meant for students, but in many places even adult businessmen are being asked to produce one.
