I understand that's how you might interpret the "spirit" of the  
license, but the terms appear fairly non-ambiguous to me:

It all hinges on the interpretation of the word "with".

If that means "BBEdit is paid for and installed, but not necessarily  
running at the moment" then fine, I agree, you can go to it and good  
luck.

If it means "may access and use from within a running copy of BBEdit",  
then that's a different kettle of fish entirely.
