At the moment a proposal to completely do away with copyright is so ridiculous that it'd be like trying to reach a compromise with flat Earth theorists by saying "well maybe the Earth is just really, really flat, but still round."
We should argue directly for reasonable copyright terms that still benefit the creators while also respecting the consumers. Everything else just muddles the issue.
