Yes. And the reason the controversy is worse, and that the biggest problem they have is maintaining an image, is because they don't think rape is a problem.

If they considered rape to be a problem, they could go "hey someone did some rape here, and we punished them harshly because rape is wrong".

Since rape isn't a problem, and is in fact perfectly fine, normal and healthy for people to engage is, you only hide it because *other* people think it's a problem. And since those people are wrong, but they make a lot of noise, then you just make it go away because it's easier.
