I think you have confused 'liberty' with something else...
liberty =~ freedom =~ being allowed to do what you want. If you are
disallowed from removing part of a document, your liberty has most

Your liberty does not increase when you delete a section. Instead, it
is increased (or, rather, not reduced) when you are _allowed_ to delete
that section.
