But why stop there? What's the difference between Microsoft, Google, Meta, and OpenAI in this regard?
All of those build their models based on the same sources and it's therefore a much more general issue than just one particular company being sued.

But that doesn't make it right in this case and, conveniently, someone has decided to bring suit. The funny thing is that Microsoft depends on Copyright law for their existence and now they want to change the rules to favor them when it suits them. In fact one of the first things that Bill Gates ever did that I remember is bitch about people copying the software that he wrote.
