It was not. Popular coverage cited the court as debating "iphone pinch and zoom," but in reality, discussion mostly focused on the actual forensic application that was used, and the effect the algorithm that application produced on the output photo. The judge displayed a good understanding of how an algorithm takes as input original pixels and produces new pixels from that.
