We're supposed to sue companies when they treat us like this but few of us do because it's a difficult process. Companies know this and act with impunity.

Did you mean "mandatory arbitration"? Suing is such a 20th century action.
I wonder if this would have affected the result, though. I haven't been through either process, but it seems like either would be a venue for making your case and getting a fair judgement. My understanding (which could be totally wrong, please correct me) is that companies mostly force arbitration because it is cheaper and less variable than trials, not necessarily because the results tend to be biased toward them. Is that true?
Have you wondered why its cheaper and less variable than trials?

Arbitration is not nearly as one-sided as people make it out to be. It's much more about making sure that the case can be completed quickly than it is about the company winning.
The company, of course, knows all the tricks to win consistently.

See that's part of the difficult process. Mandatory arbitration clauses aren't even always valid.but we just assume they are.
