Short song clips (ex: 5 sec of a song)
Unintentional audio (ex:
from passing cars)
Claimants can still block monetization or the video itself, but timestamps help you edit out the claim.

That sound good but only on paper. Do you expect your users to approach courts for any and every issue now on? Even random sounds have copyright which is ridiculous. Make any random sound with anything and upload it and it will get copyright strike. That's how messed up YT is.
