So that you don't have to address any of the issues?

Because watermarks in and of themselves are not, in fact, DRM. Even if I agree that their mass adoption by BigTech is a really bad sign for personal privacy and (eventually) freedom.
If you read my original point you'd see I said "weird DRM glorp" which you and other have tried, and failed to only closely parse "DRM" so that you could nitpick poorly.
It is integral and part of DRM systems and certainly "weird DRM glorp" for an actual close reader.
DRM is not just "I cant watch X movie because DRM" even if that is the statistically prevalent understanding of DRM.
Its a suite of technologies of which watermarking is one of.
So strictly speaking brings a lot to the discussion when you actually think about it. Stating that DRM != SynthID is addressing issues where people seem to think that DRM == SynthID. Those people are wrong, and strictly speaking need to be corrected.
"this image made by OpenAI" is a drm assertion
You wont be able to assert copyright of the picture that you added an OpenAI red bowtie to, thats a DRM issue.
