Chevron deference would come into play if the FCC tried to say that a test-tube baby was an artificial agent. I support ending the doctrine, because the shadow laws are strong and bad.

How would it? The FCC aren’t experts on the philosophical or scientific difference between artificial and natural insemination.
Under the current interpretation, that would be in their jurisdiction. This is why Chevron deference is dumb.
that’s ridiculous

You miss my point. I don't think any court would see the reasonable reach of Chevron to be the FCC being capable of determining what qualifies as an artificial person between people of natural or artificial insemination. "Reasonable" is part and parcel to the decision.
