U.S. Supreme Court deems half of Oklahoma a Native American reservation

Sure in theory Thomas is doing that, but it feels a lot like cosplay when such a resolution would go against his general views on power in general (see this case).

People might have their legal doctrines, but it’s rarely as clearcut as you lay out and all the justices can only at most be “problematic faves”

I agree on Thomas, hence the "to a fault" part in parens.

“to a fault” means “to an extent verging on excess.”

You seem to be using it to mean “to a point limited sharply by his policy preferences”, which is pretty much the opposite.
