What would you say if "an expert in their field" judge decided that MR should be banned based on a claim that people were learning how to create and edit ePubs, and they could use that knowledge to change a copyrighted work.
"Experts in their field" are, in my experience, not really expert. They just have experience. Rarely do they know all the intricacies involved. That's why it is important to allow the different parties to present their cases. Then an experienced judge can make an informed decision based on the law and the arguments as given. If a judge bases all the decisions on his opinion/experience, then there is a much greater possibility of error.
