"The only thing these brokers cared about is settling the buys/sells in this security."...
Wouldn't I be settled if they put my F/S shares in my account? Under your theory it sounds like you're saying it's easier for the broker to not have to do anything if the shares are not delivered. And yet you're saying all they care about is settling trades.
But believe me, I believe in the conspiracy theory on this.
