If that's your logic they can make you do anything they like. They can ask you for $100m "because I said so" and you'll comply to avoid spending $200m on lawyers.

Usually it doesn't take $200m to prove that "because I said so" isn't a valid claim of damages.
But otherwise, you've got the math right. Settling is typically advised when the cost to litigate is expected to be more than the cost to settle.
Yeah. That'd exactly how it works. It's why having strong anti-SLAPP laws is critical.
