46:59Why Farmers Can't Legally Replant Their Own Seeds
Expectation Violation

Putting the warning on the kernel itself, rather than a sign or a bag, makes the restriction look built into the seed.
When your story is about a rule nobody can see, print the rule onto the object it controls and zoom in on it. Let the title say who the rule hurts.
