A jury trial for damages is about as far away from a scientific determination as one could get. People have gotten settlements for cancers "caused" by LTE power meters.

I have no clue why people trot out this sort of thing as some sort of evidence.

IDK probably because if you were a multi billion dollar company that has already proved the science behind it's safety, apparently. It would seem rather trivial to prove it's effectiveness in court. No?

Settling doesn't mean you're guilty, but it doesn't mean you're innocent either. At best it's a PR move.
