Beginning with "I did read it", you mentioned several issues (plural), and

Do you feel that WGA will report a "false positive" when attempting to
validate your OS, deactivate or cripple you OS, thus requiring you to
call MS to resolve it?

Since there are reports of this, then it is possible, and not always for
reasons that are any of MS' business. Hardware changes, for instance.
Therefore, WGA is broken.
