Embargo is antinomic to open.

Comment: would you agree then that all of the journals that make back issues 
freely available, and all of the publishers that allow self-archiving after a

copyright, and join the lobbyists who advocate for extending copyright terms? 

Sometimes the perfect is the enemy of the good. 

best,
