nope, but they hide behind the thuper-prethdent bullshit to avoid having to defend this TTT decision, and they use the thuper-prethdent rhetoric in the face of any attempt by the right to overturn it.

It seems a particularly bad case for over-ruling precedent, in that Congress has had the ability to over turn Quill, which is over 25 years old, but has not done so, but the Court steps in anyway and decides to change the tax policy where Congress has chosen not to do so despite ample opportunity.

The physical presence rule was a dumb rule and needed to be eliminated, but it wasn't the Court's job to make that call.

In the cases like abortion rights, which Congress can't over-rule, it maybe makes more sense for Courts to reconsider whether the right decision had been made in cases where there is no other effective check on historic bad decisions

re the last paragraph, that's the whole "thuper-prethedent" argument... that somehow roe is more correctly decided bc the court got it wrong a second time in casey. this is a case where the court overruled what is arguably "super-precedent" when congress could have acted. even the roberts dissent seems to have no liking for the concept of super-precedent.
