People are not pushovers. They just value their time more than fighting a declared-bankrupt Aeromexico for a hotel room which will probably be a budget hotel at best, and $50/night at most.
If you are a frequent flyer and a premium flyer, then $50 is probably a drop in the bucket compared to your hours spent on the phone and the money you've already spent on airfare across the year. Not to mention the lack of travel insurance for your trip?
My guess is that you secretly enjoy the fight and ranting about it... it doesn't add up.

I, for one, think OP should sue Aeromexico and make sure he hits them where it hurts them the most: their pockets.

You fail to acknowledge that Aeromexico has been one of the worst, most difficult to deal with airlines during this pandemic. Bonus points: they paid executives bonuses (valued in millions of USD) right before declaring bankruptcy.

A lot of airlines were hard to deal with, and I agree Aeromexico was one of the worst. That doesn't make my time less valuable.

From this, it follows that paying for this hotel and then suing is the only way for things to go his way.
He can also recover litigant-in-person costs (for his time) and some punitive awards, so...
