That's a bunch of crap, really - funds spent purchasing OBSD product is a
valid business expense. As such, it if fully 'deductible' according to the
IRS rules. When you kick in a few more dollars, there's no problem
'deducting' it as a normal business expense for 'consulting' - which it
is, expending budget for technical advice obtained.
Anyone looking for charity is telling the bean counters 'hey, look at us!
we want you to ask more questions! We need more problems!'
