We don't all use it. I never have, at least not as an author. I'm sure they use the word "transformative" in their name because transformative works are fair use, but I can't determine whether they understand the difference between transformative and derivative. Some fanfiction is derivative, e.g. what I write and read.

Their legal staff thinks that all fanfic is fair use because it's all a parody under the very narrow holding about parody coming out of Sun Trust v. Haughton-Mifflin. I personally have a Inigo Montoya "I don't think that word means what you think it means" reaction to that, but if they want to stand in front of a judge hiding their metaphorical bits behind that particular legal fig leaf, best of luck to them.
