Huh? This sort of “what if...” hypothetical is what they do all day long at SCOTUS oral arguments.

‘Hypothetical scenarios’ are common legal props voiced by attorneys all over this country.

Huh? Judges pose hypotheticals all the time to tease out the outlet limits of arguments that are presented to them

To: proust
