> Chevron has been zombie precedent for years.

Where do you get this bullshit? "Chevron" was not a zombie precedent, it was very much the defining factor of the US administrative state.

A quick google search can quickly find how the legal community has viewed chevron as zombie precedent... Zombie Chevron: A Celebration [https://moritzlaw.osu.edu/sites/default/files/2022-01/10.Sun...] Gorsuch Says "Chevron Doctrine" is Dead Even Though the US Supreme Court Refuses to Say So [https://www.afslaw.com/perspectives/environmental-law-adviso...]
Chevron deference has been cited in more than 18,000 Federal lawsuits.

It was NOT a zombie doctrine. It had actively been used, all the way to the recent decision.

That “proof” is merely people that hated Chevron calling it a zombie.
