I think you are missing the big picture. This ruling is setting the stage for a new regulatory regime. The lower courts see where this Supreme Court is going and they are going to overturn any regulatory ruling that has any semblance of ambiguity in the underlying law. What matters is the direction the court is going and what it is signaling with this ruling.

By the way, requirement of minimising ambiguity, and explicit limitation of delegation are not specific to the US. High courts of many other countries enforce this very standard.

What other countries do is not something I care about as far as SCOTUS goes. We don’t have parliamentary system that most other countries have and rewriting 40 years of legislation in the U.S. is lot harder to do in than in most other countries.

This ruling doesn't say courts have to overturn decisions based in ambiguous law, it says the courts have to make up their own mind about the decision. That decision may also be that they agree with the agency interpretation and choosing to uphold it.

The lower courts see where the Supreme Court is heading and they will rule accordingly. I could be wrong. In a few years I think you will see that I’m right.
