While flying above 400' is just a guideline, flying without registration DOES have consequences. You are certainly able to to view it however you wish but I really can't see how violating the terms of what could be construed as a signed, written contract between the registrant and the FAA means nothing as far as the law is concerned.
Exactly

It's like saying a glass is not to be filled more then half full or not to be filled more then half empty. Same exact thing with the same exact results and in the FAA issue.... 400 feet. But I'm sure the next argue point will be something like "well a glass that holds a maximum of 12 ounces will hold more half empty compared to a glass that holds a maximum of 6 ounces half full
