Not sure... what if the tools to perform the extraction are publicly
available but creating the extract takes a lot of resources (say, a 64
GB RAM machine running for a week to do the extract). Would people not
come to me and request that I make my extract available to them because
they can't be bothered to go through the steps for creating it themselves?
