Pragmatism plays a very small part in their roles.

Well, yes but if a pair shark sees that they cannot really win the trial
and by doing so enhance their resume with yet another loud win, they'd
probably be more cautious. Of course you can parry by the notion that
paid sharks always pretend to be sure of certain victory, but here I
think experience and common sense of executives will come in handy.


Handy perhaps, but don't forget ego and hubris will trump common sense and decency every time. This is a situation where Apple may win the battle, but it might cost them the war, so to speak.
