Indeed. It seems somewhat akin to "Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."

But doesn't mean that.

In law there isn't something like 'oh it seems this legal precept means...'

All legal precepts have carefully chosen words and a spirit in which they're based.

Nothing about (the English translation of) that sentence supports what you keep asserting. If a Spanish high court decided that's what it means in a decision, that's fine, but you should probably link people to the text of their decision instead of repeating the phrase over and over again as if it's magical.
