This seems like some unfair framing regarding oral arg/prep in WI partisan gerrymandering casehttps://apnews.com/ba4d978ca53f445cb6ddebe24b4ca3c1 …

Absolutely, particularly if you consider moots (including time for moot judges to prep and participate in the moots). To be sure, some clients may be able to strike better deals in some cases, but that amount does not seem at all disproportionate to me.
and you are talking about one of the top appellate litigators---where there is a premium on being known and respected by the Justices

And in a case that might not be all that likely to induce firms to strike a really cheap bargain. Redistricting stuff is super political.

I think people who've never had to read through a long complex record in prep for an appellate argument don't know how much goes into that prep. And there were a ton of amicus briefs.

Oh goodness yes, I forgot how crazy long those redistricting records are. And even if an associate took the first hand at drafting, the person arguing needs to know that record in detail too. It can take 30 hours just to read through and absorb a record like that.
