How About Apple publishing their lawyer fees to prove $1100/hour is high? Not going to happen. Why?

  Because then competitors know how much of Apple's time they have to waste (in court) to produce a certain amount of Apple legal expenses.

    Any competitor with the clout the "punish" Apple, getting them to fold, already pays as much or more than Apple for their own team.

  They say in their complaint that 1100 + 15% is higher than any lawyer has ever been paid in any Apple matter. From the complaint: As Apple explained to Mr. Bromwich, of all known past Apple matters, “not a single partner had an effective billing rate as high as or higher than those that [Mr. Bromwich has] proposed.” ... . And Mr. Bromwich’s rates in this matter dramatically exceed what he has quoted in the past.
