Cleary with a lot of money on the line from one side or the other, either side can likely find a 'expert witness' who is credentialed and willing to say what they want. At least that's true in a lot of cases. Regardless of how this handled in court, it's an issue. How is a jury built of non-experts to handle such a situation? In this case they clearly believed one side's testimony over the other, against what one could reasonably argue was sound judgement on the issue. Expert witness testimony is more about theater, performance, and credibility than it is on the actual technical matter. Until we put in place a system where an expert witness is more accountable to the court than a client, we will continue to have this problem.
