I'm absolutely not picking on no one when I point out this comment is yet another example of the hazards of applying apparent common sense to matters of law. One doesn't get any extra consideration from a judge for pointing out what seems false.

Also, the article makes clear that plaintiff chose a legal strategy closer to contract breach than false advertising.

Perhaps that was a misake on the plaintiffs part. But the ruling does seem to contradict legal precedent around bait-and-switch advertising. So its still a bit perplexing.
