Did you miss the part of the title that said "ultra-dense"? As in they packed more atoms of it into the cubic centimeter than you would see in a normal amount of it.

If the latter case, then Due Process (of the "substantive" as opposed to the "procedural" variety) would be involved, because that's the basis of the Incorporation Doctrine.
And that is the basis of their decision which is why I said what I did because I had actually read the ruling and not just the summary.
