Rephrasing, I can understand perfectly from the context of motives and incentives, where a company's incentive is to maximize their bank account regardless of the law. The confusion comes from why they bothered with this particular explanation. Usually, maximizing a company's bank account in the face of potential legal threat either means ignoring somebody entirely for the case of small fry, or starting the PR posturing that will eventually become a full legal defense. If the legal defense is as flimsy as it seems to me, then the only reason for this type of PR statement would be to demoralize others. To send a message that their actual legal defense doesn't even matter, because they'll win anyways. This seems like a pretty strong statement to make, so I'm trying to figure out where my misunderstanding lies.
