You're correct if you just look at number of countries, but if you look at it in terms of the publishing industry, the biggest markets in the western world (the EU, US, etc.) mostly do have life+70 terms. If you're going to promote international trade, which is my understanding of the purpose of the TPP, you really need to standardise on "legal" stuff like copyright terms.
