    You may not X in a way that X

    Definitely reads weird to me. It should suffice to say “you may not X”.

      You may not X in a way that Y implies that You may X in a way that does not Y, and is more specific (and changes the meaning of the license) vs You may not X

      The legal distinction in this case allows for distributing the software for example as source code, but not as a service.
