1-- Those of us around when lasix was being used but not published know that it became an inside information game. We are almost certainly in that situation now with other drugs.
2-- The proper analogy is not "private property", but insider trading. We are asking the public at large to invest money in a game where under certain circumstances they are at a decided disadvantage. No one is saying that injuries must be announced-- but significant human intervention like performance enhancing drugs and operations should be.
3-- It doesn't matter that the information would not be useful to someone because the market might (arguably) then account for it- at least people would be in a position to decide what to do with it. Right now, some people have it, and some don't.
