Thanks to everybody for helping me with clarifying the license.
To answer some of the questions that came up, we would be masking water
bodies at the end of our processing chain, once we had already derived
rates for all of the pixels. There are also a few other masking steps that
would be run
Rory - I don't think you can, because the negative area is area with both
no ground elevation/displacement and no water body. There would be no way
to tell whether the negative area was water body data or simply no
displacement.

The way I understand the use, the OSM data is used to identify areas that

A constructive way forward may be to set out some tests that should be met for
