Posssibilities are one thing.

Viable theories are quite another thing.

Talk is cheap. Litigation is not.

You are ASSuming that there is in fact, a viable legal theory available
under which to proceed.

If there is, no one I know of has been able to figure one out.

You see, it is helpful before going to court, to actually have some
sort of wrong or injury that can be addressed within the boundaries of
the law.

Legitimate differences of scientific opinion are not something that
courts address.

You have to start with a controversy that is "justiciable".
