New comment by tiahura in "Anthropic sues to block Pentagon blacklisting over AI use restrictions"

The government has near-absolute discretion over whom it contracts with, and no company has a constitutional right to be a federal vendor. Courts treat military technology decisions as core Commander-in-Chief functions subject to minimal judicial review, and the political question doctrine may bar second-guessing what the Secretary deems a security risk.

The supply chain risk statute grants broad, largely unreviewable national security discretion and doesn't require the threat to originate from a foreign adversary.

Finally, the First Amendment claim faces the problem that the government was responding not to abstract speech but to a concrete refusal to provide services on the military's terms, which courts are unlikely to treat as protected expression warranting judicial override of procurement choices.

Many of these are standard fare in legal writing.

Negative parallelism is a staple of briefs. "This case is not about free speech. It is about fraud." It does real work when you're contesting the other side's framing.

Tricolons and anaphora are used as persuasion techniques for closing arguments and appellate briefs.

Short punchy fragments help in persuasive briefs where judges are skimming. "The statute is unambiguous."

As with the em dash - let's not throw the baby out with the bath water.

And your most common command sequences can be dropped into a script that takes options. Add a tools.md documenting the tools and providing a few examples. How many workflows need more than maybe two dozen robust scripts?
