What's particularly objectionable about the Futo License?
Is it this part?
you may not remove or obscure any functionality in the software related to payment to the Licensor in any copy you distribute to others.

It's just a commercial license with very mild terms.

To add to the license complexity, the model uses another FUTO-written license, though it at least does not seem as bad as the license for the keyboard:
