So, I may be entirely wrong here, but I thought it's only considered a handball if intent can be reasonably presumed (or you're doing something wildly stupid with your arms, the ball hits them and drastically changes direction etc)?

As I say, I could be totally wrong with that, but I don't see how this would count as a handball if I'm not. Definite contact with the forearm, but zero chance of intent or even ability to expect it, really.

Decided to walk rather than be escorted from the building.

They're paid pretty directly per market forces. Clubs can afford to pay high wages because it's worth it in terms of the money that brings in.

In that sense, no, they aren't paid too much (as a group), because if they were then clubs would rapidly stop paying them as much and/or go out of business because of it.

Morally, it does seem a little revolting.
