Intent is the key word here.

Profiting off illegal content is already illegal by itself and all these special cases should be left to courts to decide instead of throwing around overly broad blankets

And this case is exactly to provide a framework for lower courts to decide intent. In fact, it was a court that asked this question to the CJEU to be able to judge a specific case. It's much better to have clear rules what is allowed and what isn't than operating in a grey area and being dependent on courts deciding in your favor without being able to asses the risk beforehand.

That is not so easy and depends on your definition of "profiting".
