Double jeopardy doesn't prevent someone from opting out of a class action lawsuit and suing separately.
Yes. But one individual probably does not have sufficient injury to represent a meaningful case for the company. The point is that you've blocked a second, larger, class action lawsuit. Which is what the company is actually scared of.
The hot coffee case wasn't a class action lawsuit.
