When Max and his fans say he "deserved" the title, I think they mean he had the best season of his career.
And he did, 8 wins, plus Spa and Abu Dhabi.
But he still came into the final race level on points and was blown away by Lewis until Masi intervened.

Marshalls were still on track lap 56. 15.3 was entirely taken out of context and doesn't give RD control over SC. An agreement doesn't override safety and the regulations, so green flag is irrelevant. Multiple Regs were broken.
