Because Disclaimers such as this need to be made upfront when selling teaching materials according to Law.
You will see such disclaimers or similar ones in every book that teaches drawing and the like.
You have to be clear on your intentions, so there is no confusion for the buyer.
You can't say nothing, then sue later.
