Like I said it's probably for POST sale, protection. So the stores can protect themselves from getting returns wherein the warranty has been voided.

Say someone brings in their ZZ to an RS and claims that "...it just stopped working", when in reality it was a dual cell mod gone terribly wrong and fried the PCB. Well all the RS salesman needs to do is see if the PCB cover had been tampered with and proceed from there to find that it had been altered, which would obviously void the warranty.
Because this i'm sure was the case on occasion with the first release of the ZZ. And now they've a booby-trap of sorts.

hehehehe booby...
