Here's one of the keys Methinks.

"Engoron also found that Trump inflated the value of his Mar-a-Lago club by at least 2,300%, claiming the property assessed by the county between $18 million and $27.6 million was actually worth between $426,529,614 and $612,110,496.

In total, Engoron wrote that the New York attorney general "submitted conclusive evidence" that the defendants overvalued their assets between $812 million and $2.2 billion.

So even if you decide that 450 million is a more reasonable price for Mar a Lago,(and it could be) you still have 1.7 billion in overvaluation. In the grand mix of things, that is large, but not large enough. So let the defendant deal with the uncertainty he created on appeal I would think, or maybe that reasoning doesn't apply here.
