The legal system prefers to run in ruts left by previous legal decisions. They just let the wagon steer itself most of the time. It usually goes off the same cliff the previous wagon did.
Which brings up the comment made by Harlan1196.
Or do you really feel you understand the issue better than all those judges?
If someone is able to recognize, and evidence, an error by the court then they are able to "understand the issue" at least as well as, if not better than, the judges.
It also illustrates that if someone can recognize the errors made in one instance then they should also be able to recognize other instances of error.
Enforcing the impression that we're all idiots and incapable of determining issues on our own and only judges can do so, as Harlan1196 is doing, is an insult to all Americans.
