She worked at Amazon and was a major part of the work at the start. I don't think there was a prenup, which is a major reason why she got half.
You're correct that she is LEGALLY entitled to half, but that doesn't make it right. People can LEGALLY traffic slaves in Yemen, but I'm going to guess you won't be advocating for the God-given right of Akhmed to sell laborers to UAE real estate development companies?
