4. Of course it's from The Hill, but is the fact they leaked really more substantial than the leaks?

“Together, the leaks are shaking confidence in the court’s historic privacy and prompting calls for a reckoning.” Its privacy is more important than it’s transparency in the form of providing reasoning for its decision that can guide lower courts and shed light on what the law means according to the Court that determines any law’s effects? All leaks aren’t created equal in my mind, but it seems we as a nation, especially Republicans, have a history of overstating the effects of leaking itself while understating the impact the contents of the leaks have on undermining our system of government.
