Because xdvipdfmx is not strictly obeying the law. XeTeX does not care which 
flags are set in the font, it just creates an XDV file with references to the 
fonts used. The output drivers which produce the PDF file should care.

When a font exists on some system and its embedding is neither allowed for 
print nor for preview use, then it's kind of a system font, restricted to be 
used on the screen to just display information, including in an internet 
browser. With preview loading into a font editor is meant.

It's questionable whether all these restrictions are legal.

If you don't find it in the index, look very carefully through the entire
