i.e., welcome to Constitutional law, where divining the effect of a amendment written in 19th century prose lives and dies on jurisprudential philosophy, rather than decided case law. (Is that what you mean by the “(and common law?)” parenthetical?)

References to "domicile" come from common law (in Trump v Barb).

I may be mistaken.
