On the other hand, it is an interesting example of how big
corporations are willing to try to deny justice to their customers,
even when it isn't in their long term interest.

Perhaps as an Aussie, you don't grasp the assinine trend in US courts.
If a corporation pays off one claim, they set precedent and all claims
against them from then on are stronger and more easily won. With that
knowledge, do you suppose the long term interest changes?
