The conclusion I get from both studies is that small influences can have very large effect on judges ability to give out sentences. If Muslim judges are 10 per cent more likely to acquit a defendant for every additional hour of fasting they experienced, and that decision according to the study is more accurate, then Muslims shouldn't be making sentences outside of that effect. For non-Muslim judges there is no difference so no need to apply the same restrictions.
I suspect that such conclusion would apply much too great significance to that study.
