Reply to comment by jeffwinger_esq in We're Tom Wolf,Eliza Sweren-Becker, and Ethan Herenstein. We work on democracy reform at the Brennan Center for Justice. Ask us anything about the Supreme Court’s upcoming case Moore v. Harper and the “independent state legislature” theory. by TheBrennanCenter

Not the experts but since it seems AMA is over I'll give the impression I get:

Repealing Roe vs Wade and similar "extreme" decisions are simply a reversion to colonial era America. This is this thus easier to justify than ISLT which has never once been a thing in the history of America.

While we might get the impression the stacked SC is free to do whatever it wants, they do need to at least have a "reason" for their actions. And "it's a reversion to how things were when the constitution was written" won't be a valid one this time.
