Those two words mean what they mean. If you want to imagine in your own mind that they mean something different and pretend that it makes the statement "uninterpretable", it's a free country.
>This case is just making the argument that if a government requests action or brings a platform’s attention to some content, if the platform agrees with their request, acting on that request or notice would violate First Amendment rights of the people who posted the content.
The case is making the argument that the government crossed a line from "request" to "coercion" or "coordination", and that there should be limits on the latter. Overall this case is a good Rorschach test, because if you switched out the content for something more amenable a lot of people would immediately switch sides on this issue.

So what this resolves to is: platforms cannot concur with a request or notice made by the government.
