My intuition is that residuals have a higher chance of a low payout, whereas options have a lower chance of being worth anything, but probably a higher value if they do pay off.
Residuals for a company which is bankrupt would be zero - same as their stock price.
Also, they could just rewrite the sections of code that are expensive and nuke their costs and your residuals at any point. Unlike a brand or whatever, it’s trivial to redo as it’s not user facing.
