But that doesn't authorize circumvention,
it says you can use DRM, but only if you
use a "dummy" DRM that doesn't actually
restrict any rights. And I think that only works
if you take a broad interpretaion of that clause.

I mentioned earlier that a narrow interpretation
might be "We've created a DRM version of the file
that doesn't allow you to copy or distribute, but
that doesn't prohibite you from exercising the rights
of the work on the original work."
