Money better spent elsewhere?

Now it's finally over, am I allowed to ask just what has been achieved by all the time and money which has been expended on the inquest into the deaths of Princess Diana and Dodi Al Fayed? It's not as though it will have changed anybody's mind - the overwhelming majority who always believed it was nothing other than a road traffic accident will not have been surprised by the verdict, and those few conspiracy theorists will simply see the inquest as just another part of the conspiracy. And the fact that this would be the case was blindingly obvious from Day 1 - so why did we bother?
