No, not in itself it isn't, but what it certainly is is a strong motivation to avoid liability and to pursue all legal remedies/defences available. Those seeking compensation need to be prepared to argue their case and deal with issues of law, they should look at the circumstances objectively whilst paying attention to the legal framework and the nuances of legal argument.
