I just think going to court would have calmed a lot of the outrage. Maybe thats a price to pay and maybe people would more understand what is actually happening. I don't think "most things settle" is a good enough reason - this isn't "most" things.
Maybe I am wrong though, just sort of floating some thoughts.
