Why no crypt?  It is available for US customers only as a special item.
Omitting crypt is required by US export regulations to keep un-friendly
countries from gaining access to this valuable technology.  The manual
has a reference to this effect.

Whether Canada is an un-friendly country or the question of
extra-territoritality is not at issue.  There are PD crypts available;
whether they meet the US requirements is not known.
