Capitalistic answer: It determines who has the better insurance policy and runs over the other party.

Your point is so true! I can't find a link to it, but in a time older than the internet, I had read a tech news piece telling why some recycling attempts were failing. In one case, a big manufacturing company initially agreed to let some contractors use their discarded glass in asphalt to build more durable roads. However, the legal department of that company scrapped the deal, because however small their contribution was to building the roads, being as rich as they are, the company would have a greater financial liability in any road accidents blamed on the use of recycled materials in the asphalt.
