Instead, it's a click through licence that amongst other Proprietary
terms requires anybody with database access to accept these terms
again (but viewing generated map tiles is okay):
3.2 You may not sublicense your rights under these Terms to any
person. If you require another person to access the Database for the
Permitted Purpose (including a person you engage to design or build a
Derivative Product on your behalf), that person must obtain a copy of
the Database from the www.australia.gov.au website and comply with the
Terms of this licence.
Two steps forward, one step back.

a clear piece of evidence that getting Au data licensed for ODbL is going

be like pushing excreta uphill
I may be reading it wrong, but getting the data to work with cc-by-sa would
not be possible either. Essentially, with OSM, you are doing sublicensing
all the time due to the way it is working. But I could be understanding
wrongly. In the case of Google, since they don't give you access to the
database, it doesn't matter.
I don't think it is here an odbl problem.
