I really hate how broken the legal system is. settling is often the right choice regardless of guilt or innocence, just because going to court will be more expensive, it creates bad incentives all around

Settling is in both parties interests, but I really dont know how often "justice" is achieved. It can give cover to the guilty with funds, it can incentivise spurious suits, and for cases of public interest it hides it behind closed doors.

Best of all, at the end of the day, the taxpayer foots the bill.
