It is not clear to me that this text talks about APIs at all.
It seems to be about the *internal* structure of a database, which -
in my opinion at least - has very little to do with an *interface*.

It talks about "SQL Data Structures." It finds that those are copyrightable. I'm not sure why that wouldn't apply to, say, C data structures, as used in an API.
