Theres a whole lot more moving pieces to that giant mozza ball, but its definitely a factor.

An interesting comparable would be Auto-Body Shops. You get a tiny door-ding and it costs thousands to fix because they're not gouging the hell out of you, you're a person, thats no good, so they're gouging the hell out of a faceless insurance company, and thats okay.

If anything you'd think insurance companies would be lobbying hard for standardized rates more than anyone else.
