We all hear the same oral argument, look at the same information and evidences from the briefs and other sources and each came up with our own conclusions. This is normal.
And it appears to me that people seem to believe that a non-remanded decision by the court is a more likely scenario than a remand decision by the court, and as a consequence the remanded timeline championed by Mad and others is of no concern to most people at this moment, and I don’t see any wrong with that as fas as DD is concerned. And in this interconnected digital world where fake news and scams run rampant, it is perfectly wise for us to not trusting anyone and be skeptical due to the simple facts that we are faceless/anonymous and don't know each other.
I can understand Mad's frustration with people ignoring his remanded timeline, or not taking his remanded timeline seriously for the reason I stated above. But if this court came back with a remand decision, which I think is not likely, then I'm 100% certain that this board will exploded with discussions about the remanded timeline.
I can see a reason for remand by the court on one item that I heard on the tape and it has nothing to do with points raised by Mad and other this board, but I've chosen not to share that remand scenario here because now because I still am trying to understand it, and am consider it a minor thing.
I have few other comments to make:
The "broad brush" concern/comment by the court near the conclusion of the oral can be a worrisome to many, but I'm not at all worry about that comment based on other things that were raised/discussed fully by the court and all parties. (I think we need to remand this oral hearing specific to the "broad brush" comment back to the court and Worlds for further discovery :-) )
Bungie first brought up discovery and objected to any discovery, but the Court responded that discovery is an alternative that Worlds had asked for and can be a consideration if necessary. This is a very standard reply by the court and should be not construed as a leaning in either a remand or non-remand direction.
This court also did ask Worlds if collateral estoppel is an equitable doctrine and asked had Worlds found any cases that say under some circumstances that the court has discretion not to apply collateral estoppels, and Worlds was so thankful to the court for bringing this issue up. I don't know what this means to you, but it further enhance my confident that remand is a less likely scenario in that the court is contemplating an equitable remedy.
