Is there anything stopping the Epstein estate from releasing everything?
Can't imagine what it would be.
Other than maybe just not wanting to get more deeply involved. Or risk getting sued by somebody or another on something they did or did not release.
Plus, the Epstein estate only has access to the things that Epstein possessed and that the FBI returned. It would not have potentially criminal documents and video that the FBI retained. Nor has it ever had the likely mountains of evidence, witness and victim statements, etc that the FBI gathered independently.
For example, if there ever was a client list, I doubt the FBI returned it to the estate. Also, as you note the Epstein estate is paying out settlements to victims. So, it has its own agenda to limit the damage done by the materials it releases. We can't assume that it's 100% credible and reliable.

One concept of "client list" is one kept by Epstein himself, essentially a contact list, that could very well have many legit uses, but could also include info useful for leverage if needed. That list may or may not (still) exist, but another concept of a "client list" would be derived from the investigation itself, consisting of names of people with relationships with Epstein, some of which might be legit, some of which might be illegal and/or related to the women (or girls, actually - the women may be different). So bottom line, there likely isn't and wont' be a comprehensive and clear "list" but every name that comes out of the investigation will get tarnished right or wrong.

True, unless he used a code or some other way of IDing the creeps within his sphere. It's been alleged that he ran a "network" of abusers. That would have taken some level of organization, but .

My guess - GUESS - is that there's a lot less to the whole thing than generally believed. Scandals have a way of getting a life of their own. I'm guessing the girls are a small part of his whole organization and except for the great amount of money involved isn't much different from other ultra rich guys lining up entertainment for their clients.
