You seem to be interpreting the word "accept" differently than I would.
I interpret it to mean that the user of the Class C device has no
recourse if any unwanted operation occurs as a result of EM
interference. I don't read it to mean that the device must be made
susceptible to such unwanted operation.

I doubt this is a correct interpretation. It would amount to depriving
me of the use of my own property without due process.
