I'm not the person above, but actually go look at the pages. It's double spaced, wide margins, and sometimes up to half a page taken up by citations. Not that it's exactly going to be a speedy read, but it'll be way faster than like 200 pages might seem. The supreme court margins if you've ever looked at those rulings get especially ridiculous, each page is like a quarter of a page. Tiny bit of text floating in the middle of a mostly empty page. Not sure why they format them that way. Anyways, they're long, but not as long as the page totals imply. A minute per page isn't unreasonable.
