All of that seems to be pretty paranoid for the time.  How many 68K Unix
systems were around that could even use the stuff?  They must have thought
that they'd cover the world in their boxes.

I'm trying to recall--this was before AT&T got really predatory in their
Unix per-user-license pricing wasn't it?  Basically, you paid your money
and they sent you a tape that would work on a PDP-11, right?
