Second (and far more important), malware can disturb the software licensing code in your PC, causing WAT to flag a system as not genuine.

If I've got malware on my PC, I want it found and removed. If MSFT's WAT is the only thing that finds it, then so be it.

It showed up today as an important optional update. I'll select and install it.

I'll let you know if I grow horns or if my PC turns into a handheld calculator or worse. ;)
