I agree. I'm always talking to people who are going to sue "for millions", but when I go through settlement agreements and jury awards they are generally much lower than headlines would lead you to believe.
Often they can even be zero. I had a district attorney send me a very rude letter recently (under non-disclosure) saying that he didn't give a fuck if I won a case against the county because he loses cases all the time. He said that even when he loses he gives zero shits because he'll get in front of the jury when it's time to figure out damages and paint the plaintiff as such an asshole that the jury will award zero damages. I believe him.
