I think that is a false dichotomy the lawyers have created: have a slow moving system or a system where justice isn't served.
Our current system is slow and unjust. There are other options.
My wife and I tried to be foster parents, we did it for about three months, but everything was so slow moving. We had to spend 30 days just to have a piece of paper signed that no one contested. That moment opened my eyes to the corruption the lawyers have willfully constructed and willfully participate in and I have hated the entire legal profession since that moment. The system from the simplest cast to the most complex is designed to pad billable hours without concern for latency, justice, or consistency.
But what do you want them to do? Build a shitty case in 1 year and get destroyed in court?
Remember, Apple has thousands of lawyers too, they aren't going to settle this case.
