If you’re the one with $56b then you’re free to decide that. In this case though you’re not on the giving or receiving end of the deal; your opinion really doesn’t matter.
The contract was conditional on price. At the time, no one thought it possible to achieve such valuation. So they deemed the payout likely to be zero i.e. 99.9% that the payout was zero.
You understand?
This is a bonus, conditional on performance. This is not a simple payout. The legal case MUST come up at the time of initiation of the contract else it induces moral hazard.
All of Delaware is now off limits for everyone for ever now.
This is like an insurance contract being voided because it was "too good of a payout" but they only void it when you get injured, your houes burns down etc becaues "oh we didn't realize it until we had to pay". But they collected premium all those years and nobody challenged it.
This is incredibly immoral. It is literally moral hazard.

A $56 billion pay package is wholly unreasonable for anything less than solving world hunger. Nobody on earth today deserves that much money.

My opinion matters just as much as yours; besides, I'm arguing from a moral standpoint, not a legal one.
So... what? Should judges overturn all contracts they think are "unreasonable"?
Yes? That’s a big part of the judicial system. It’s a contract, not law.

Actually, yeah, judges do void Unconscionable Contracts on the regular.
IT WAS NOT A 56B PAY PACKAGE AT THE TIME!
READ THE DOCUMENT!
IT IS CONDITIONAL ON PRICE!
