So, they are deliberately misleading the judges. I really would like that to be recognized as "lying under oath" (or is there no oath attached to such briefs?).


My comment was meant at least slightly tongue-in-cheek. I've seen some people (usually pretty deep compiler experts) who were able to do a remarkable job of reconstructing original source from object code.

In general we don't enact legislation entirely against the worst cases, for good reason.


OK, my bad.
