A policy preventing Copyright owners from making $ on manual claims for:
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.
Still not good enough, how about blocking claimants from claiming clips when they wrongfuly claim just to hurt the video producer as a punishment?

This is an important step (with more to come!) towards a better Copyright system for creators & music partners long term.
