This is quite a stunner. It is very rare for judges to make these kinds of rulings. They almost always find a way to leave it to the jury. I wonder what the fallout will be from this and am interested to hear people's opinions.

A huge portion of the discussion in many posts is about whether something really even is an optical illusion in the first place. Is there anything like a consensus view on this? Or, if not, what are some of the more common views here? To be clear: this is not a rhetorical question. I'm not trying to make a point and don't have enough background to have a strong opinion of my own. But I find illusions fascinating and am always curious what people consider a legitimate optical illusion when they call out a post as not being one.
