It's legal and perfectly reasonable for a human being to combine organic fuels with oxygen from the air to create energy and CO2. Any law restricting that would be the worst form of tyranny.
It would not be reasonable to allow machines to do that at unlimited scale without restrictions.
(Hopefully the fossil fuels industry won't draw inspiration from the legal arguments made by AI companies...)

Is there any line past which it becomes unreasonable?

If the machines were a replacement for a damaged respiratory system in a human would it reasonable?
What about if the machine were being used by a human to do something else that was important?
Where is the line where it becomes reasonable?

That's exactly the question we should be asking about AI and fair use.
Are you refusing to engage with your own metaphor?
