As the person who wrote much of that text - originally for our Ext JS license - I can tell you that the intent was not to be deceptive, but some of the text doesn't make sense when it's applied to a free license like the Sencha Touch developer license (and legalese can be read with the wrong tone)
Here's what it means.
You've just downloaded version 1.0 of the software, good for you
You're entitled to get version 1.1, and 1.2, and 1.3 as well if and when we ship them
You're not entitled to get version 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3 (if and when we ship them) - that's a benefit just for our technical support subscribers
You're not entitled to file technical support tickets either.
Does that make sense?
(Incidentally, I am a little upset by the implications of the comment in the post you linked and will reply to it now. Our support subscribers allow us to pay for developers to develop patches, which then we make available only to our support subscribers. All patches are rolled into the next minor release.)

作为撰写大部分文本的人(最初是为了我们的 Ext JS 许可证),我可以告诉您,其目的不是欺骗,但当将其应用于 Sencha 等免费许可证时,某些文本没有意义。触摸开发者许可证(法律术语可能会读错语气)
这就是它的含义。
这有道理吗?
(顺便说一句,我对您链接的帖子中的评论的含义感到有点不安,现在会回复它。我们的支持订阅者允许我们向开发人员支付开发补丁的费用,然后我们只将补丁提供给我们的支持订阅者。所有补丁都将纳入下一个次要版本中。)
