No, just smarter than 5 of them, plus you.

All nine missed that military statute. Want to re-think that last point?

I thought we were talking about the ruling. How is the missing of a military rule an issue of "smarts"?

Data isn't the most important factor. The interpretation of the data is. You are interpreting the data the Court had available as "insufficient" and the justices are saying that the data available is sufficient and dictates that the statute must be overturned. Your argument is the exact same argument that is given anytime the Court overturns a state's laws. "Judicial activism" only means the Court acted in opposition to your wishes.
