>you can in some cases copyright the digitisation of out-of-copyright photos

I don't have an opinion in either direction but it seems unnecessary to criticize the disagreement of others when even your own link refutes your claim, as Animats pointed out above. "Let's not throw stones in glass houses" and such.

Are there any examples to cite that support your claim?

No it doesn't - it says it's not a settled issue.

"No ... settled" vs an actual official UK government website on the subject contradicting with actually there's a "degree of uncertainty". How much of a better source can you get than that?
