Exactly. You completely misunderstood the metaphor. If you don't understand why, I'm not going to try to explain it to you, because you probably can't understand.

Which of these is more like the others?

The metaphor is severely flawed in that it should read that a business had been increasingly successful for years when its employees took them to court. A judge then quickly sided with the employees to grant them everything they sued for, thereby forcing the business to comply with their demands regardless of how workable the business model would be. Even the employees didn't expect such a quick ruling as they had piled on demands hoping that an out-of-court resolution would meet more of what they actually wanted to force negotiations and get their base demands.

Now, the owner of the business has been held hostage by this same court with the same court decision for 15 years and is not even looking for a chance for a change of venue. Instead of business people being able to make business decisions, the government has once again intervened via the original court to wield its almighty hammer in favor of employees that now regard what was once a list of unreasonable demands as a right of entitlement regardless of how it may kill the business in the future.
