Why? Should ISPs start MITM traffic? Internet connections can be used for downloading illegal content after all.

That’s what we’re preventing here. The agreement is ISP’s/infrastructure gets the clear, and applications need to regulate the content they host. If they stop regulating content, ISP’s will
That's nonsense using a disingenuous framing. Application like Browser have existed long before and after ISP DMCA exemptions, applications do not have any responsibility to enact laws on someone else's computer/property.
Otherwise why not also remove safari since apple does not prevent copyright abuse there.
It's not disingenuous framing, it's just an attempt to understand the motivations of the people writing the laws. What would be disingenuous would be comparing an App Store or an Authorized developer account to a web browser.
