This is the type of class action lawsuit that hurts the validly of necessary and important class actions.

for some reason this was an incomprehensible title for me until I read the beginning, then it all fell into place.

Well, it is a pretty egregious crash blossom. I don't understand why journalists persist in writing these awful abominations of language.

Yeah, the other two articles had great headlines with puns, but were paywalled. Bloomberg used a pun about cans, and Reuters used "poured cold water."

I didn't edit the title because I think it's against the rules.

Good. I hope some stupid lawyers lost a lot of money trying to litigate this.

Lawyers that litigate typically never lose money. Only the clients paying them do.

I mean, I don't really have a lot of sympathy here. These people are trying to blame literally anything else for their problems. I'm pretty sympathetic to people in most class actions, but this was absolutely ridiculous.

That's not true at all.

Look up "contingency fee" or even "fee shifting".
