That doesn't mean it won't have an effect. Agencies will lose some of those cases now, since they don't have the presumption. It's likely that some more cases will be brought, and agencies will likely be a little less aggressive in how far they push their interpretation of statutes. Whether that helps or hinders "effective implementation" of the statutes is something reasonable minds can disagree with.

Frankly, I expect corporate America to view this as “open season on pushing the envelope”, and attempts at enforcement will be narrowed by fear and/or by “executive action” eliminating enforcement budgets, not to mention pile-up at the legal front. Which will take years to resolve, rather than an accelerated decision (slow tho some might be) via regulatory agency.
