He has a large ego. Look at his whole debacle with the Twitter purchase itself. He tried to pull out when he realized he was overpaying, then eventually folded as the lawsuit came up. He also has enough money that the cost of legal fees versus the chance of lowered payments is worth the risk. If he succeeds , any legal costs incurred are a win. If he loses, he’ll brush it under the rug like his other losses (definitely with some memes) and act like he’s the winner. This has been his pattern across all previous litigations as well.
