Regarding the analogy with health data, the list of exceptions is long, when it comes to the application of data protection laws. For example, they do not apply in cases where public health and safety require it;
For government research and statistics needs;
In case of a law enforcement investigation;
When the security of the President or other high ranking officials is at stake;
When the data can be collected from other sources (such as the phone book);
When needed for legislative purposes;
In case of a court order or other legal mandate;
If the person giving the data does so willingly;
And data protection doesn't apply to second or all subsequent sharings. 

The truth is data protection is very loosely applied and is not meant to prevent law enforcement, legal processes from going their course. 
By gating all data, or reducing RDS to just a technician's tool, this would also break the economy of the Internet. 
WHOIS/RDS is also a phone book and as such, it protects the end-user by affording her and additional and important level of security. 
Nowhere is it said that RDS is purely technical.
This is reductive view.

It is a disclosure of a limited set of data.  we are not supposed to be talking about disclosure at this point in our proceedings.  I leave it to the experts on whether this is "thin" in the sense of the thick transition discussion, I really don't know because we are focused on gTLD policy here.  My point is this is a disclosure.  We do not "collect" thin data per se, we collect a whole mess of mandatory data elements, as per the RAA.  Then we generate a whole mess as part of activating and making real the domain's existence.  Then we share (release) a small subset.
