They do until the Supreme Court interprets otherwise.

And now the Supreme Court, who interprets the Constitution as part of the checks and balances, is making noise that it could potentially disagree.
Also, as someone who is so versed in English, you understand that a sentence can refer to more than one thing, right? I can write a sentence, post to Lemmy, and kick a football. Only the sentence is what I write. The comma separates them.
Legal decisions have been decided on commas and they can be incredibly pedantic.
Right, but the comma separates the "Constitution creates the supreme court" and the "Inferiors courts that Congress may establish." Cutting out the middle removes key text.
It seems pedantic, but that's exactly the argument that either has been or will be made, because that comma implies that the Supreme Court and "inferior courts" have separate sources that govern them.
There are zoning issues and missing middle issues and so on, but there is one thing that everyone keeps saying won't work while saying all of the stuff they've been doing will work (and doesn't).
Fucking cap the sale and/or resale price of houses. Don't expect the capitalists to make life easier on others at the expense of their bottom line, STOP them from doing it outright.
When they complain, build housing as the government which you can rent control without lobbyists yelling at you.
Developers may go away, but I doubt we'll lose them all, or even most of them.
