Your response sounds very much like a lawyer attempting to justify his client's greed. Your presumption that, because he has a substantial income/will receive a considerable insurance payment, the claimant is not motivated by money may be correct - but I've never found the two to be linked.
Even if I'm being too cynical about the motive, I seriously doubt whether a legal action claiming compensation is the best vehicle for achieving the objectives you mention.
If (which I doubt), there is any need for such an investigation, then a formal inquiry to which all parties involved give evidence without being at risk of being ordered to pay enormous sums in compensation is far more likely to be productive.
