To me it reads, not like a careful legal analysis, but likw an impassioned but reasoned plea to a jury of 12 on behalf of the accused, a rare thing given that our judicial system is not an adversarial one. But it is definitely a skill very much in keeping with the practice of the law. I think I'd defer to twg (choice of J.N or Bachelors) but would support either. Oh, and on peer-review: having read it, I can think of no edits. This is a gem. Well done. -G.
