That is a distinction I need to mull over.

I don't see how this is similar at all to requiring the user to make
data collected by an application available.
It is narrower than that. The specific term in the CAL doesn't cover all
data collected by an application. It is more constrained; it says that
you have to provide a user to whom you give access to the software a
copy of their own data that was provided as an input to or was an output
of the software.
It was designed to allow an individual the effective means to self-host
or to choose another host - in your parlance, "run" the software -
without losing anything by so doing.
Thanks,
Van
