You can call this hiding behind a "flawed" law if you want. I think its not a flawed law, it exists for a very good reason. We have a lot of people uploading content that truly is theirs. We own a lot of content licenses ourselves. We own a lot of exclusive content ourselves.

ok wait...
then why do you have paid partner accounts?
its not like you are letting watermarked content get uploaded..
from my experience, when i tried to upload watermarked content, i was told i needed a partner account..
so, by that response i would take it that you do monitor uploaded content and if you monitor uploaded content then you should now if something raises red flags..
your argument loses credibility when you selectively filter content based on your ability to monetize content...
if an uploader tried to upload content without a watermark, it should be a red flag that they dont own the content...
if they upload watermarked content than at least the owner would get type ins...
