That’s a top tier rule. “comparative advantage” level

I think the much stronger claim is that *this* statute just did not entail that delegation. As compared to many other statutes that do delegate tariff authority, explicitly and under relatively precise conditions - including for national security (section 232)

That seems like the heart of it to me

Some very important conclusions on attribution, plural responsibility, plural invocation, etc., all designed to avoid shrugging off responsibility through gaming the rules of state responsibility (ARSIWA)

And CT seems to have said lack of cooperation re the treaties raises demand on states to demonstrate they are complying with customary IL

Thus custom and treaty exist in a dynamic relationship in operationalization - not just interpretation.

An imp litigation tool, even in national ct litigation
