That is not a contradiction at all. If you can produce a source which
tells us that this obscure lawsuit was important, and which echoes your
original research and analysis into what happened, then re-insert it
with appropriate sourcing. In the meantime the reliance on your own
original historical research is problematic, and you should not
reintroduce it until you have a secondary source.
