Because you don't have an answer for the same question.
Who will produce the product if the profit isn't there?
Showing a clip on Youtube is fine. Even though the producer might not like it the damage is little.
So should the copyright law go into the size, resolution, length and what part of the original can be shown as a clip.
Yes copyright law needs to be updated, because it was written in days prior to the piracy we see today. That piracy is diminishing the profit of the original producer. And effecting future productions.
That's a fact not even you can argue against.
If you buy products that can be copied and pirated you're paying for the pirates free ride. Because the cost is passed onto you. If you're pirating, you're a parasite living off others who pay for you.
Step up to the plate and share what you produce for free and maybe you'll have some credibility.

the fair use of commentary should 100% protect every single upload to tube sites, because the commentary "OMG this is an amazing dance routine"
should be as protected by the first ammendment as the original broadcast.
that statement makes no sence without the right to clip the video and show it. which means that stement is being censored every time such a clip is being taken down by a DMCA takedown request.

The statement
IS protected by the First Amendment. And the Copyright of the clip is protected by another law. So the "should be" statement is stupid.
so what if the Statement makes no sense. Making no sense has never stopped you. A DMCA does not cover the Statement.
If the original poster of that clip wants to put it on Youtube with a comment. He has a way of doing so. Contact the copyright holder, obtain his permission and if obtained, post the comment and the clip.
Your statement can be applied to anything. I can pirate a movie, show it in a cinema and put a comment in the bottom right hand corner saying "great movie". If publishing something protected by copyright is legal so long as it has a comment.
Can I put adverts next to the screen as well?
