Businesses who deal with relatively large sums of consumer dollars should be very aware that people have limits, and that high dollar sums put them much closer to said limits. Everyone should always strive to treat each other ethically, just because it's the right thing to do, but those dealing with life altering amounts of money need to know they're at a higher risk if behaving unethically.

They are also familiar with the practice of pushing limits to gain attention, then back down in some degree to demonstrate fake good will.
