Companies and people settle all the time, sometimes for very large sums, on the simple math that it's cheaper than fighting, not just in lawyers and legal fees, but in avoiding bad press airtime in front of gullible weirdos like you.

Your initial argument is perfectly valid, and I can't fault it even if my opinion is different. However, I am unclear as to the need to refer to me a gullible weirdo? Genuinely curious, - Me.

Any variation of "only guilty parties settle" is an unserious take held by naive children easily manipulated by headlines and guiltmongering. It fundamentally requires a level of gullability to let that notion roll around unsupervised in your head.
