Yes, I know that, but isn’t that at least in part because they could find themselves in an interminable legal case if the CA pushes back?

what I think it is or was afraid of were cries of "Sánchez dictador !" from the media and opposition. anyway, the moment has passed , it's clear the govt is not going to do it
