    @alexhazanov @joshuak08 @SeanTrende Just so, and the sole grounds for changing the standard as to whether public statements let courts look behind the text of a regulation seems to be that the Court (just this once) thinks the governor doesn’t get the same deference. And it’s clear this is a one-off in that regard.
