There are opinions on Commons that Moeller's

I'm not offering a legal opinion on the underlying issue, but if I
follow the discussion correctly it shows absolutely no reason to think
Mike has "overruled" Erik on anything. The statement from Mike that is
being pointed to is about a different question entirely.
