In sum, the legislative history of Section 109(a) reveals that the

This is false, at least as held by the Ninth Circuit and upheld
by the Supreme Court; "lawfully made under this title" means
exactly that, a copy made as permitted by this law. Omega vs.
Costco resulted in first sale not applying to imported items
because they were made in a foreign country, and thus not "made
under this title". You may continue to believe that this change
is immaterial to the outcome of Wells, but I already know what
your opinion is worth.
