Yes of course you are right in that he could have chosen better ways for his purpose in that case. But as I said before, even if this was not his purpose (And he just wants the money) he is involuntarily highlighting some serious deficiencies in the system. It is simply ridiculous that a whole trial has to be done, with all the costs and time it implies, on the basis of a temeraire action. A mechanism for simply rejecting such actions already in the moment of their presentation should exist. That's the main conclussion I draw from the whole thing :hmm: .
