Nice. We now agree that even though the owner of some property does not want to share, there are indeed circumstances where the owner must do so anyway.

Which leaves us with discussing what reasonable circumstance is.

You'd argue that fencing off a five mile long beautiful beach so that nobody else can enjoy this land is reasonable. I'd argue to the contrary, and it seems judge Barbara Mallach, at least, is with me on that one.

No, absolutely not! I'm happy the judge rules as she did. The disagreement is merely about terminology. I just don't think it's reasonable to say you "own" land that you can't keep people off of.
