Capping the benefit seems asinine when you consider all of the different situations.
Personally, I don't consider it abuse at all. From everything I've seen published, he didn't claim any expense that would be in violation of the program's guidelines.

I was only suggesting a cap as a solution to the "problem" because some people posted that $70k is an excessive amount. If that is indeed the case, then you can prevent it from happening again in the future by putting an upper limit on what can be claimed.
