They know perfectly well that broadcasts will be recorded, etc, to some extent. That's been the case from the days of wire recorders and Blattnerphones! So what they have to show IRP owners is that the BBC is taking 'reasonable steps' to minimise this 'leakage'. What they are expected to prevent is any such leakage on a large or commercial basis. As you say, it then becomes a trade-off between various difficulties and costs.
