Does the article cut-off or something? It says "...we just might be getting ahead of ourselves. Let’s back up." But it never really revisits the initial claim

Does the article cut-off or something? It says "...we just might be getting ahead of ourselves. Let’s back up."
But it never really revisits the initial claim that this could kill class actions...
- gbhn 16y agoThe article argues that the Supreme Court interprets the Federal Arbitration Act as superceding state class action rules. It's a borderline thing, I suppose (5-4 decision), but it seems like a fairly straightforward ruling, predictable for this court, and a pretty defensible interpretation of what the law meant and Fed > State precedent.
