I can see the most extreme SCOTUS conservatives rationalizing their decision to counter your observation by referencing the most arcane and ancient material. The Maurya Dynasty Edicts? For sure. The laws of Ur-Nammu? Bob’s your uncle. Hittite criminal law? Why not? Crete’s Gortyn codes? Shee-it! If Alito felt that he could squeeze the appropriate “logic” from a scroll pulled from a mummy’s ass, he’d run with it.
