The problem is that they have let other (less controversial) laws slide without a severability clause, so there is precedent.

Yes, but the others did not have myriad and unknown unintended consequences. It’s waaaay too much in this case. Best to just say no and have legislature repair. Not doing so would be a stretch of unimaginable proportion.

That's an express intent of no on severability.
