  • I got that advice as well – the explanation given to me was that it’s almost always used incorrectly, so just be safe and don’t. However, I like the way it makes writing more closely resemble natural speech; we usually talk in conjoined clauses rather than complete sentences.

I don’t think you’re off the mark with that read, but where I think it comes back from kangaroo court and sov cit land is all jurors have to agree, even one objection to a nullification would stop it; if twelve strangers all agree, there’s probably some merit to it. But, certainly can be abused in the wrong hands.
