In a syntactic, but not semantic sense. This line of argument presumes no
judicatory relevance in dissenting opinions by Supreme Court Justices.

A fundamental construct of meaning is the evolved history implicit (even
if not explicit ==> string viz. e.g., semantic pointer) in a "name" or,
"semantic instance," cf. the Oxford English Dictionary, voluminous based
upon its meticulous attention to evolved versioning in meaning.
The tapestry of meaning unravells when only the "final canon" is taken as
valid . . . meaning is ontologically backward compatible. Foucault,
Spivak, et al note this well in the extemely important contribution to
narrative and, by implication, semantic content with the notion of the
import of "subaltern" readings (check the OED on that term, viz. this
URI/Namespaces issue, it offers useful conceptual perspectives).
