Look, the issue is that there is no insurance amount. When asked to show it publicly, they used a random function.

Ofc many websites do that. I did one in my previous company, it's a common social gimmick. But, once a journalist asked us how it was calculated, we removed it... we knew it was wrong from the CEO to the code monkey.

The rule I believe is: don't lie to your customers, yes even if that can extract more money from them.
