No it doesn't.  If 12 people, out of 200, mis-understand, or don't have
full visibility of the situation, it in no way stands as data that can
be relied on to produce a figure of "thousands".   OK, so maybe there
are one or two valid cases somewhere, that can be proved before a court.
Suppose those plaintiffs dropped the ball on following through like you
said you did with the US Attorney, doesn't this become "crying over
spilled milk"?  At some point people just need to get over things.
