No, not detail!
Editorial 1:
"Wait, stop following the rules, we have an emergency on our hands!" seems to be the message. One wonders what the point of rules would be, if they don't apply anytime a problem comes up.
Justice Jackson probably has the appropriate thing to say on this topic:
"[The forefathers] knew what emergencies were, knew the pressures they engender for authoritative action, knew, too, how they afford a ready pretext for usurpation. We may also suspect that they suspected that emergency powers would tend to kindle emergencies."
