All I want to see is "WD recalls SMR drives for all customers who affirm that the drive gave them trouble, gives full retail price credit toward any other WD drive purchase". A percentage bonus for our trouble would be nice but unlikely.
It's not perfect, but it's a compromise. People who care get new drives; WD pays a cost for their mistake.
