The lawsuit is not about downloading, but about enabling circumventing protections.
By your analogy, it's not about the shops selling kitchen knives, but hosting a side door to a protected weapons/knifes shop.
(I hate analogies. In general. But wtf is that analogy now that we included more context?)
Nah,
youtube-dlsupports a plethora of sites. And you can download from almost all of them without breaking any laws. Like kitchen knives have 100s of uses that are totally fine and don't hurt anyone. I stand by my analogy.
