I understand "access=no" as meaning no *public* access, but perhaps
that is better covered by "access=private".
access=private doesn't make much sense on land that is publicly owned.
Right of access is different from ownership. Not every bit of land owned
by a government is public. What about an army base? What about council
administrative offices? Publicly owned, but private access. UK public
footpaths on the other hand illustrate the opposite scenario: legally
entrenched right of access across property owned (mostly) privately.
OSM currently doesn't do anything with ownership AFAIK.
