This claim is a false dichotomy, and is therefore a fallacious premise
in the argument.  Anything that follows from it therefore fails on the
basis of this faulty premise.

I do think there's something that is basically political here,
however, and that is the emphasis on jurisdiction over attention to
the detail of how the accountability system that's already been
delivered will work in practice.  That would be considerably more
useful, in my opinion.

Best regards,

A
