Clearly this law needs to be worded harsher, so the button MUST say "rent" if you are renting.

No, there is a much better alternative.
No renting of copyrighted works for money. The customer owns a copy or GTFO.

In my experience it's a pretty clear warning, but I might not be the best person to judge. The thing to remember is "buying" a revocable license is pretty different from "renting" a temporary license, and those words have pretty different connotations.
