I think everyone who was like "great, now every environmental group ever should sue!" underestimated how swiftly those groups would be dwarfed by the juggernauts who are already collecting billions and billions of dollars from us and want more.
Even someone who believes that Chevron deference was "incorrect" in an abstract sense would have to be able to see that the court's don't have the *capacity* to do what agencies do. This is more total work for fewer people, who are already overloaded.
They're not dumb. They don't *want* it to work.
