It's not that simple.
Sincere cooperation has value and is weighted by authorities, regardless of where it does or does not lead. Years served are based on such factors.
Also, there are the civil suits. Standards of evidence are generally lower and a credible and cooperative peon has value to plaintiffs as they pursue the big targets.
