Sounds more like restricted airspace to me. We, as hobbyists, are restricted to less than 400' within 3 miles of an airport, currently, without permission to fly higher. Therefore any airspace above 400' is non-navigable for us, according to your interpretation. But, other aviators are permitted to navigate in that airspace so it is both navigable and non-navigable or an oxymoron.
