Philosophically speaking, and I am speaking philosophically here, what’s the difference between a “hush money” payment and a “blackmail” payment?

Yes. Blackmail, nuisance lawsuit, whatever. Same difference.

The difference is whether the money was solicited by the recipient or volunteered by the one paying.
