The DC Comics Objection talked of fishes and nets, and it reminded me of donkeys and carrots and just how we got this particular "settlement".
My simple theory is that Google wrote the complicated Settlement Agreement including the $30 Million Dollars for Plaintiffs' counsel and pointed this plum portion out to them at settlement negotiations.
I'm guessing the attorneys (who were supposedly representing ripped off writers) were blinded by greed, and made little if no revisions to Google's grand plan.
Maybe that's just me distilling nearly 400 pages into something I could probably Tweet, but I think I nailed it.
