There have been more recent rulings, from what I understand, that only sorta upheld it. (including stuff along the lines of how juries have the “power” but not the “right”, which best as I can figure, means they have the de facto power, nothing can be done about it, but they shouldn’t do it.)
Anyways, I wasn’t so much asking about the legality of it itself as much as if it was the Right Thing to do, taking into account the various other considerations of the importance of rule of law/predictability of the court system, TDT style considerations of the relevant algorithm I’d be effectively running, etc.

Thank you, though.
