Nice try, but let's the court rule that this "twelfth" defense (quite
late in the stack) is not utter nonsense before getting all excited.

Of course, once a ruling is in (if defendents don't fold prior to that
and get into compliance) you'll start your "the judges must have been
drunk" bluster that does not stop when a higher court rules the same.
