The prevailing narrative is that the court system is somehow constantly overloaded, so everything from settling out of court to plea bargains to private arbitration are favored.

You don't need to couch this in conspiratorial terms: it's not "the prevailing narrative", courts ARE overburdened. The "somehow" is that they are underfunded and understaffed, because creating more judicial resources means spending more money and often raising taxes, which no one wants to do.
Everyone wants more judicial capacity, no one wants to pay for it.
