So they're admitting that their entire business model requires them to break the law. Sounds like they shouldn't exist.

Reproduction of copyrighted material would be breaking the law. Studying it and using it as reference when creating original content is not.

The model itself is a derivative work. It's existence is what is under dispute. It's not about using the model to produce further works

Then every single student graduating college produces derivative work.

Everything that required the underlying knowledge gained from the textbooks studied, or research papers read, is derivative work.
