Who here doesn't bother swapping ECU's when going in for service?

Yes.
Or rather they can if they want. Magnuson-Moss's warranty provisions that you have the right to do the service somewhere other than the dealer do not apply, because there is no charge for the service from the dealer.
If Audi wanted to be hardass about it, changing the oil yourself could be cause to void the warranty.

Doubtful. Dealer dependant and would only be an issue IF there were some failure
that was caused with an oil change like - leaving the pan bolt loose/leaking after service, engine siezed due to no oil, using a non-audi-quality filter etc...

Technically, yes. My point was legally, they could for any reason.
And the dealer has no say what-so-ever in your warranty. Go open your warranty booklet. See your dealer's name in there anywhere?
