Ryujinx did none of that, which is why instead of taking it down, Nintendo just paid off the main developer to take it down.

Yuzu generated keys programatically, which was the issue, and Nintendo took that down directly.

So according to Nintendo's actions, they think Ryujinx was perfectly legal.

Sure and then paying the dev not to develope it is also legal. Who wouldn't take it see that free program you are spending time on we well pay you not to do that.

Yes, but that doesn't set a legal precident for future emulator development.
