Good catch. I definitely meant it in the sense that I doubt anyone would currently argue such a thing. But the same historical twist applies to photography, albeit a century earlier -- whether copyright should be extened to photographs was a hotly debated issue in the courts. It wasn't until 1865 that copyright was extended to photos, almost 100 years after copyright itself was instantiated.
