That is exactly what I said.

SCOTUS is asked to exercise ORIGINAL JURISDICTION. So, rather than review the trial court record on appeal, SCOTUS looks at thousands of pages of briefs and declarations.

There will be no live testimony.

SCOTUS may or may not order oral arguments.

But SCOTUS is acting as a trial court here, not an appellate court.

Here is exactly what you said...

forcing it to go through thousands of pages of evidence

Again, no one can force them to do anything, as they can reach a decision in any way they feel comfortable with. Second, there has not been “thousands of pages of evidence” even submitted to them to easily review if they wanted! You simply made another bad point, on multiple grounds. Dismissed.
