The courts need to take judicial notice of facts, not legal fictions. Judges ,some of whom are human, have made many mistakes over the centuries.

Yes, but the reasons the SC ruled how they did in Roe v Wade would be a judicially noticed fact, wouldn't it? I don't think the court would have to mention it's judicial notices in its rulings; they could rule on any reasonable point, as I understand, but do it noting that the law was unlikly to survive the SC, and that being the real consideration.

Maybe somebody out here has more expert knowledge of the situation.
