No, you are not the only one. I think it is a silly idea, dreamed up, no doubt, by someone in R3 who wants to boast 'We are the only ones ever to broadcast every single note he ever wrote', and an appalling use of radio time. No doubt the Schubofils will now be at us for slandering the master, but they should understand that we are not anti-Schubert, but anti this wall-to-wall treatment of any composer.
Far too much Schubloke

I ended up being somewhat baffled by the virulence of those condemning the whole event, presumably without actually listening to very much of it.

I think the problem with allowing any Tom, Dick or Harry access to raw reseach data is that outsiders will generally be incapable of consistently drawing sound conclusions and may well publish selective or misleading figures, in print or on the internet, which fit their own agenda. Such publication is impossible to correct and police.
But in my view. it would be reasonable to expect the BBC to allow access to the professionally prepared Management Summary of Findings (or equiv).

As they agreed that it was their 'working practice' we were left wondering what it was about the two tiny pieces of information that was so special ...It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

In other words, that is why they should be in the public domain, and any argument about them can be seen to be transparent.
