Curious why you think these nine individuals are better suited than people with actual expertise?
In the ruling in which they self-ordained these new powers, Gorsuch confused nitrous oxide with nitrogen oxide, five times. Better hope Gorsuch didn't rule on dental anesthetics on your next visit to the dentist.

- renegade-otter 2y agoAs opposed to the judges who fly on donor private jets and then take the cases of the said donors. No conflict of interest there. Zero. And, oh yeah, zero enforceable ethics rules. The disdain for expertise is something I would not expect on HN, but here we are.
