Torrent clients don’t name themselves “Game of Torrents” and have test cases for downloading TV shows.

The problem YouTube-dl ran into is they literally named themselves after a prominent streaming site that is copyright holder friendly and also literally tested, in their codebase, the ability to do a thing that arguably violates the DMCA.

The "literally" parts help the RIAA make their case.
