What about the case, though? Attorney fees would be far, far less than the billions they've paid in settlements, right?
OK, so now you're just guessing.
It doesn't strike me as not racist for a corporation to avoid going to court over their racism by trying to pay it away.

Settlement is cheaper and that's better for a big corporation's bottom line in the next quarter which is usually all that matters to the top executives.
Right...that's exactly the point.
What doesn't matter to them is the fairness or structural problems that triggered the lawsuit in the first place.
And why doesn't it matter to them? Because it's institutionalized and systemic, and they don't have the appetite to change it unless forced via court order and/or settlement.
