They're stating objective fact; the laws and courts can't 'decide' differently any more than they can decide that pi equals three or that swatting flies is murder.

Of course, that doesn't guarantee that calling them on it will end well for you, but being in the right never really does.

There's a category difference here. Ownership is a social construct in a way that pi isn't.

Possession in 9/10 ownership law, right?

Only if the social construct of ownership is defined that way.
