Agree, in "the real world" I have received checks for ten cents before.
When you owe, you owe. That is all there is to it.
The principle of paying what you owe far outweighs the principle of minimum payouts. One is a matter of ethics and the other a matter of administrative convenience.
Programs could literally use terminating accounts and not paying as a way to collect thousands per year.
