I actually thought that was excellent writing, and very plausible. Keep the amounts in mind. They have billions of dollars at their fingertips... and Walt is demanding they send 8 Million to his wife and kids... an amount much lower than the contributions they know he made to the success of the company years ago. The dollar amount is insignificant to them, and not having Walt (or any possible minions) around is worth a lot.
My guess is if the show flashed forward you'd see them throwing all of Walt's cash into their fireplace and burning it to avoid any implication of their handling illegal money... then cutting a check for 8 Million to Jr out of their petty cash accounts and considering the matter 'done' - especially when they read in the paper that Walt is now dead.
