[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider ]]]
[[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies, ]]]

Is this extension mechanism limited to adding new fields and options?
That may be sufficient most of the time in practice, but not enough
to make it free.
The reason that TeX change files are sufficient is that, being edit
scripts, they can represent deletions as well as additions.
You said there are other methods:

Do the other methods enable the changes that this method does not?

That is a subtle question. If the schemas mechanism is designed for
such use, maybe that's an argument that it is permitted. If it comes
down to it, I can consult a lawyer about that question.
