That was my literal question, yes :-) I'll reword it to be match what I was trying to say.

This kind-of comment would have been clever in elementary school.

Here, you're just being a dick.

Sorry I really wasn't trying to be a dick here. The original post asked whether one party could sue instead of being responsible. It is possible that this is why my post seems childish.

The point I was trying to make was about conflating the damages being sought in a lawsuit by one party and the actual damages owed by other other in a lawsuit. I think it is pretty common practice for the plaintiff pick a high number out of somewhat thin air to prevent themselves from pricing themselves from leaving money on the table.
