I demanded, the combined offer amounts for about half of what I asked for.

Now what's really odd-ish is that LH claims that it was a weather related incident
and hence they would not be liable for anything.
Which leaves the two major questions:

• if they don't owe me anything why do they offer me miles and cash?
• why did other carriers fly the route if ATC called a halt due to weather?

So probably time to write back once more .
