"Again, I already pointed out that the MDEC is trying to argue QUANTITY over quality. Theres no point in regurgitating anything about concensus unless one thinks it reinforces correctness."

Nope, now you're moving the goal posts.
I am not the MDEC and I do not speak for them. The MDEC may well be taking a position on correctness; I am not.
What I have said is that the conclusions of all the judges who have ruled on this matter shows that there is widespread agreement among the judicial community regarding how WKA is to be interpreted, and that agreement is by definition the current state of the law.
I am not -- I repeat, NOT -- saying that that interpretation is in any sense correct. I am simply saying what I am saying, that there is widespread agreement, even if some consider it to be widespread agreement on something incorrect.

The only one moving goalposts is you. I've already address this "widespread agreement" claim by showing that the decisions actually use a variety of inconsistent arguments. Many of these decisions are based on lower court dicta, not WKA interpretations. And you're STILL using a concensus argument. Just admit it. It's still a fallacy to do so.
