Your account doesn't take into consideration the "fair use" doctrine of
U.S. law.
The "fair use" exemption to (U.S.) copyright law was created to allow things such as commentary, parody, news reporting, research and education about copyrighted works without the permission of the author. That's vital so that copyright law doesn't block your freedom to express your own works
Notice the words research and education.
Also this;
Section 107 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered “fair,” such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
Teaching, scholarship, and research

Not applicable
It is applicable because the OP didn't give a complete accounting of
copyright law.
