I'm going to end this whole argument by saying we will have a system where you can be registered without PT3 connecting to the internet. HOWEVER, you will get two installs this way. After those two installs, you will need to purchase again.

An example. You buy PT3 and don't want it to connect to the registration server. You get your code (that's one). A month later, you format your computer and get another code (that's two). The next time you need to register, you will have to purchase another copy.

The reason for this is that we have no way of knowing that you didn't just install PT3 on two computers and are looking to install it on a third. The reg-server method lets us monitor this kind of thing. Therefore, the reg-server method means you can format your computer as many times as you wish on one purchase.

Therefore, people who are overly concerned about PT3 connecting to the internet get what they want, but at an added cost, due to the lack of security on our end.

Does this mean if you choose the reg-server method, PT3 will only allow you to run it when you're connected to the internet? Other than this small issue I'm perfectly happy with the reg-server method, but there might be a time my internet is down and I want to analyse some of my hands.

No, it will use a method similar to PA Hud, where it needs to connect on a regular basis, but not 100% of the time.
