That sounds absolutely insane, you don't even request that music to be played.

It's time for copyright to adapt to the 21st century.

It doesn't sound like they were blocked from ever sharing the video, just that they can't make as much money off of it.

The music is likely fair use since limited time period and not main use.

But fair use is complicated and there is no way it could be determined by algorithm. YouTube can’t trust the uploader. It doesn’t scale to decide by person. Fallback to DMCA process would be too expensive. Plus, fair use is only US. Easier to just deny copyright material.
