I should clarify, I meant "will the GP be less concerned if the precedent says training is legal in the U.S.?" The Japan one was just an example of what could happen.

My point was that, if the GP will disagree with such a precedent, then their worry goes further than mere legalities. Specifically, "there isn't clear legal precedent yet whether training models is an acceptable use of licensed work" felt like a non-sequitur to me, because it is unlikely they would care about the legal precedent.
