You seem to think these statements are equivalent. They are not.

"Kavanaugh a few weeks prior" is perfectly consistent, as explained in the other post I linked.

Please articulate a scenario that bisects them, then.

And no, your "solely due to" vs "contributing factor to" does not satisfy this. The quoted text (from Whren v United States) is extremely clear: race cannot be a consideration.

[zahlman]

No, the quoted text does not mean what you claim it does. The English words "based on" do not work that way.

Therefore I am done here, as well.

I followed your thread and can’t think of a situation where one case was satisfied and not the other.

Can you give us an example where the two statements are meaningfully different?
