People seem to misunderstand that the point I am making (sorry if this is not clear) has nothing to do with whether they should or should not have settled this case. Only the attitude of the legal officer and the statement that he made.
The statement he made will have the effect of further reducing the number of cases that he has to fight...
If he were really interested in troll-stomping over all other interests he would be better off saying "We may have won this one, but most of the time we like to settle".
