Is there any indication that if Netflix pays a fair amount, Broadcom will still not let Netflix use the tech to deliver its services? The court order seems like an implementation detail for the enforcement of the patent. The court orders the cessation of the illegal activity, it's up to the relevant parties to come to an agreement and continue doing the same thing but this time legally.
