Those "courts" are currently rubber stamping many of the out of control "unitary" executive actions out of political expedience. It's not far fetched to think that the trend will continue for reform. In fact I think a lot of the people supporting the current administration support the autocracy because they think it is about reform (because they seemingly have no ability to analyze the administrations' actual actions beyond team sport cheerleading, but I digress)
Escalating the dynamic is bad, because we ultimately need to pull out of the corruption. But continuing the dynamic of letting the looters keep their ill gotten gains having them declared as untouchable "private property" is worse.
Also even if this does not end up happening, broadcasting the intent far and wide puts a chilling effect on the current looting. The point is there needs to be possible consequences on the table to balance the official policy of having a fire sale.
