I understand "access=no" as meaning no *public* access, but perhaps
that is better covered by "access=private".
access=private doesn't make much sense on land that is publicly owned.

Right of access is different from ownership.
Not every bit of land owned by a government is public.
I wasn't talking about every bit of land owned by a government.  I'm
talking about public rights of way with legal use restrictions.

Forgive me, you used the phrase "publicly owned" and I jumped to the conclusion you were talking about land owned by {local,central} governments, and there is plenty of that, much of which is off-limits to the general public. I still have problems making sense of your assertion that access=private doesn't make much sense on land that is publicly owned.
