Therefore, if you make false accusations against a website that has all legal content, you may be sued for damages by those adversely affected.

Sounds reasonable to me.

Just my opinion.
read it again it doesn't say service provider of the infringing site it simply says service provider

remove your content would also be a service provider (of the copyright holder)

copyright holder tasks a service provider to do all the work

that service provider "accidentally" takes down a legit site

the service provider immunity kicks in because the law grants it to all service providers not just the service providers of he rogue site

btw you again dodged the question

if you truely beleived it impossible to abuse why are you so against putting a clause that says you lose your copyright if you ever abuse it.

if your arguement that it infringement is dead wrong, you now have to live under the rules you think are fair for everyone else to live under.
