I agree with you about the fair use argument. Seems like it doesn't meet a lot of the criteria for fair use based on my lay understanding of how those factors are generally applied.

See https://fairuse.stanford.edu/overview/fair-use/four-factors/

I think in particular it fails the "Amount and substantiality of the portion taken" and "Effect of the use on the potential market" extremely egregiously.
