The person seemed to be implying as if they were making the money back in 1 day otherwise this comparison would be meaningless, as they can have infinite revenue, but 0 profit.
Who's better positioned to pay a fine, an individual contractor who makes $1mil profit in a year or an unspecified company that makes no profit but has a >$1B market cap and high revenues?
It feels like the person I replied to first is so eager to assume others don't understand the difference between profit and revenue that they miss the forest for the trees.
I think it is unclear because the top level post didn't make a conclusion, just threw out a fact.
If the implied conclusion is the fine won't hurt or have an impact because revenue >> the fine, they are missing the relevance of comparing the fine to profit.
I'm not sure what other conclusion they would want people to take from the fact presented
