Not that it would be relevant: but just _how_ do you arrive at that

Well, if it not themselves that can be called a major violated party,

But that's subjective. You should rather check what courts consider a
good argument. And then you should check the copyright holder's

That's not my business. Better ask the copyright holder. That will
give you a good guess about when you will go to court, and with what
claim.
