1. Yes, that’s my impression. My upding is for the paragraph I quoted. I’m not entirely onboard with the rest of your post(s).

2. That said, afaic Brandeis has doubly discredited itself: first, by inadequately researching a dubious decision beforehand; second, by buckling to intimidation after announcing the decision.

If you recognize the decision as dubious, then why do you say they buckled to intimidation, rather than simply recognizing the decision for being bad?
