Anyways. It's still great news. Merry Christmas to me, Merry Christmas to me!

I was thinking about this earlier today. I don't see a first wait surviving strict scrutiny either. Although we wouldn't be likely to get actual strict scrutiny, it'd probably be intermediate or somewhere in between. That's why it seems uncertain to me, scrutiny could go a few ways. Doing it this way makes sense though, subsequent waits after the first one shouldn't survive any level of scrutiny at all so this seems like low hanging fruit.
I'm really looking forward to seeing CA try to defend this one. They will be tripping over themselves trying to come up with justification.
