But slightly different - the code they're being asked to divulge is simply that which would allow other programmes to interact effectively with it.
They're not being asked to divulge the code behind the unique features that windows offers (and we could ask if there are any such features that need protected by a 'secret formula') simply the code whose obscurity allows anti-competitive behaviour to continue by making competing products appear broken if they fail to interact correctly with Windows.
Also worth bearing in mind that "unprecedented access" doesn't necessarily equate to 'enough access'.
