That's an interesting way to spin it. The tools already exist. There are plenty of tools to extract data from an H2 database. No additional tooling is needed.

Again: No other software product I've worked with, closed source/proprietary or otherwise, have I seen where they lock users out of their backup files (Or even the repository database). I'm genuinely curious if you can give me an example of one that does this? Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, TIBCO, IBM among others: Every product I've worked with I could access the repo database behind the product and could open any backups with basic archive tools. I've never seen a case where the database and/or backup was locked out like this.

Your database schema isn't code. It's table names, column names and data types. If there's something "proprietary" in your database schema then you've done something very wrong.

What difference does that make?

Hmmm, proprietary as in years of investment made.

Irrespective, we make it easy to restore a backup. You're asking for something above and beyond that capability, and making software engineer arguments about business decisions. It's clear what you want. Hopefully it's every bit as clear to you that this isn't going to happen, and believe it or not, we have valid reasons for what we've done. You have means to accomplish your needs, should you choose to use them. Beyond that, it's basically an academic set of arguments that won't carry the day.
