The problem is that the FAA does not consider the icing warning a limitation! If you're walking along and see a sign saying: "WARNING: Minefield Ahead" you can argue that it doesn't mean you CAN'T walk there, only that you may die if you do so. Therefore, it's not a limitation. This is the way the company is looking at it. It only says you MAY go out of control and die so what's the problem?
