As you know, law students have been trained for many years to set forth both legal and "policy" arguments in support of a particular position. Before he was a judge, Brandeis developed this form of dual advocacy -- the "Brandeis Brief" in written form -- to buttress weak legal positions with sociological, psychological, and economic evidence from expert witnesses. Unfortunately, the courts accepted this type of advocacy, which received its high water mark under Earl Warren (who famously interrupted an argument before the Court on the legal merits, with the question "Yes, but is it fair?"). The corruptive effects of such policy arguments were inevitable and are now hard-wired in the legal system.
