It's user-hostile no matter what the intentions are. In an ideal world, the market would punish companies that treat their own users as attackers.

How is it user-hostile to obfuscate your source code? It doesn’t change the user experience, just makes it more difficult to reverse engineer which would be against the EULA anyway.

Most anti-reversing clauses in EULAs wouldn't get past a court because of public policy concerns (i.e, recovering the systems/methods/algorithms used by an app is a legitimate form of competition and we don't want copyright or contract law to get in the way of that)
