It seems like such a blanket statement to say that false negatives don't cost them money so they just let is happen. First it's very clear that Youtube spend considerable effort creating content ID and not used a dumb filter which would have been so easy to create and might I add cheaper also. They also care about their reputation to the extent that it doesn't impede them in making money in a significant way. Don't get me wrong I completely think Youtube's copyright system is a joke and for instance if Kim .com was operating it, it would have been raided by the FBI out of existence spontaneously.

I don't know if anyone remembers how bad Steam customer services used to be. They tried super hard to use engineering to solve it and it was awful. They finally gave up and hired more people and now it's much better. This definitely isn't an easy problem as some make it, but yeah I don't think the answer lies in better algorithms. You just need a lot more partner supports that actually assist creators who run into issues.
