This clause requires that the unrestricted copy be "at least as 
accessible to the recipient as a practical matter as the
restricted Database".

Is "accessible" here just a way to ensure that you can always 
get data out of a proprietary system (i.e., your satnav should 
come with a copy of the data in an easily parseable form like .osm)?

Or is it to require that users be able to do the same things 
with the unrestricted copy as they can with the restricted copy 
(i.e., your satnav must accept .osm data as well as its 
proprietary version of that data)?
