That incredibly sophisticated tapestry of legal thought amounts to - "Of course we aren't influenced by the personal biases that would influence any ordinary person - we're better than you rabble!"Except.... the layman's view doesn't factor in 500 years of unwritten rules in the legal and judicial professions as to how things should be done and are done.
What a wonder 500 years of legal thought has produced! So persuasive! LOL!
