35. I'm guessing you didn't read the three opinions and two concurrences either?

I theirs is no mention of refunds in any of them, so whatever law you are relying on isn’t in the opinion. It makes sense since the issue before the Court which I believe was does the IEEPA authorize the President to set tariffs on an emergency basis, not who gets refunded and how. Kavanaugh goes into the logistics and impacts of refunds, but I know you’re not citing conjecture in dicta in a dissent as law?
