It's not about the money. It's about risk vs reward. Musk absolutely killed himself over getting Tesla where it is (it kind of shows in his mental state of late) having that all ripped away because a guy with 9 shares complained about his pay package and won on a minor technicality is vexing to say the least. The pay package required extreme levels of execution, and Tesla achieved extreme levels of execution.
