Mary Anne's Got You Nailed On This One
And I think it should be obvious that you are flat out ignoring a mountain of precedent. You want to argue that's all wrong fine, but don't act like what happened was ground breaking. It was entirely consistant with legal rulings for decades and politicians were making a big deal out of it on emotional not legal grounds for reasons both nobel and politically calculating. Mostly the latter I believe. I might well have done as you suggest in the same situation, but it is not right to cast judgement on someone who you do not know in an extremely personal decision.
