Because EA/DICE hates us.

"Because EA/DICE hates us" doesn't make any since at all. You just need to login to play makes since to me.

Is English your mother tongue? No disrespect, but it made me giggle, please don't take it the wrong way, but when you say "since", I think you mean "sense"?

On topic, I don't know why EA requires a login for single player. It is totally unescessary.

The simple answer has already been given; you DON'T need to login for single player. What you do need to do is select a profile which happens even when you use an offline account. You can have multiple profiles (accounts) with different settings (this was also true in BF 1942).

Not entirely true. My friend and I use the same disks when we play online when we visit each other (we both have 2 comps lan'ed together) and while we installed BF2 on them with our individial keys, we can still use the same disk. It is the KEY that is associated with the ACCOUNT, not the CD itself.

Good to cds two different cd keys. Great and the key is encrypted using the current administrator account on your pc when you install the game.

Not sure exactly what you're trying to say but the point is that all CDs are identical; you can use the same CD and/or CD image to install and play on any number of computers at the same time as long as you have unique valid keys for each computer. This is why the CD check is completely pointless.
