I have a slightly tangential question: can someone link to articles and writeups that discuss how YouTube and other platforms efficiently disambiguate between a valid/allowable recording and a prohibited recording, when the content between valid/prohibited is very similar or near identical in the most obvious features (e.g. rhythm and key).

Answer: They don't, and you're guilty until painstakingly proven innocent.

I don't disagree with your cynicism about the flawed and slow disciplinary process. But it's still in their operational best interests to improve and iterate on their auto-classifier algorithms.
