You think the public wants to see dudes slapping high fives profiting off of one of the biggest greedy blunder/scandals and financial crises that ruined people's lives?
well i can put this in another way
these guys "put up" when pointing out the greedy people profiting off a broken system were going to make it crash
the villains of the 2008 crisis were not the people telling everyone what was wrong with the system

Sure but with a complicated subject matter the easiest way to connect to the audience (where everybody is pissed off at anybody who made loads of money) is to show contrition.
(It's the emotional visual medium mea culpa, despite the fact they weren't the culprits).
It's standard Hollywood and I think they needed that in the movie, otherwise it would have had a weird ambiguous note that most would be confused with the point of the movie.
