I feel bad for him but it still comes across as not taking full responsibility for (or even fully understanding) the mistakes made.
I totally agree. There were brief mentions of the improper mooring ball at 21:40 but zero responsibility accepted. And I'd have to believe that his willingness to not sue or litigate is based on legal advice that he was negligent and it'd be hard to argue and win a case to get the claim accepted.
