I think the point of jdubz79's comment was that regardless of what you might think of conservation and zoning policies, it is unambiguous that the developer voluntarily entered into an agreement and then grossly and deliberately violated it.

And even you consider architectural planning some sort of civil rights issue and this some sort of deliberate protest, his violation is unambiguous.

I understood that. However: We are definitely not going to change that ruling - thus talking about the ruling itself or this isolated case is pointless. We can only talk about opinions.
