19. Exactly correct. And in this case it's even simpler

This isn't the first ruling saying that the executive has the power to substantially change staffing in the administration and that district judges can't pause that action nationally while they hear a case about such restructuring.

It isn't a surprise that - once that is clear - the administration would file "emergency" requests saying essentially "Hey... can you tell this judge the same thing please?" or that the court would respond quickly with something like this unless a lower court would apply the new understanding on their own.

It' the lenthy dissents that are perhaps not surprising - but at least out of the norm. Usually it's one paragraph ruling followed by a single sentence saying "Justices X & Y would have not have granted the request"
