If you think 70M is a game changing amount of money to national prison syndicates, you misunderstand the magnitude of their influence and the economics of the drug trade. Giving away 1 of the barrels is very very unlikely, so is letting walt go... but it fits perfectly within the show's ethos and the Ozymandias theme specifically. It's exactly the same 'mistake' so many others have made from the Don, to Walt with Jessie and so on. Having a 'soft spot' for someone is a terrible idea for a crime lord... yet many seem to and it comes back to bite them. Look how many Gangsters get convicted by informants they trusted.
