Coming from a district court, I think this ruling could be appealed, but it’s welcome news nevertheless.

100 miles from the border or coastline is like 90% of the population of the country. And I assume that’s a feature, not a bug.
To add, the Great Lakes count as coastline because you can navigate to an international boarder from any of them. That’s how you cover the vast majority of the US population with this loophole.
Not because nearly every major population center is next to a coast?
You get a lot of the population by that alone. You get 90% by including the Great Lakes.
