As a plus, if we were to include the [assumed] nonfunctional data as package definition, we would have to attest whether that could be shared and sold unlimitedly.

As for simply mentioning it or referring to a repository containing it, considering the fact that it's been 6 months since I last read the GNU FSDG thoroughly, I do think that the guidelines need to be updated so as to officially address these two cases. Perhaps we all need to question FSF to do that?

A reminder however, that maps with scripted events are also functional data since they can misbehave. Whether the game referenced by the engine uses those is yet to be proven.
