    But if the extracted copy from X is a big data dump, it can be very hard
    to enter it in Y.

Yes, it may be difficulty, but what I said is still true:

    > Whether you can enter it in Y is a matter between you and Y. 

If there is a difficulty, it is Y's fault.  It's not X's fault.

    So maybe we should change the paragraph. I think the right to migrate
    might be too much to ask from a provider. But we should ask them to
    provide us with a copy of our data in an interoperable format.

Yes.  Site X should make it easy to get the data out in a useful way.
And site Y should make it easy to put data in, in a useful way.
