Regarding Pink Stuff


I picked up Prestone Waterline Antifreeze.
They boast a 'No Burst' guarantee down to -100! Here is my question, especially for our friends in Canada who deal with cold temperatures.
In the directions and in bold capital letters it states: NOT TO BE USED AS A WINTERIZING FLUID IN GASOLINE OR DIESEL ENGINES.
Why do you think they made this statement?
I tried calling them couple of times, left message and never heard back. Is it safe to use this pink for our 'fresh water cooled' engines? Ingredients contain ethanol, propylene alcohol and potassium hydroxide.
My best guess is that they want to protect themselves from any lawsuits that may arise from a problem with a cracked engine block.
What say you? Would you guys use it for engines up north?
