Can't it be argued that SCOTUS's positions:

1. FAA is less broad than NRLA

2. NRLA does not override anything in FAA due to it being overbroad and/or things in the FAA not being "common policy"

are false, and thus the law on the books is not being respected?

#1 appears to be false and #2 is based on their erroneous position in #1. NRLA is more targeted than FAA and came 10 years post-FAA, so the argument that things covered in the FAA were not "common policy" at the time NRLA became law and thus wouldn't be overridden by NRLA seem ridiculous to me
