No, it is not just a technicality. The rationale and reasoning behind a court's decision is every bit as important as the result, if not more. In Milligan, there were two opinions, a majority opinion and a minority opinion. Above, where you wrote: "The ruling in "Milligan" was unanimous, not just a "majority", as Boynton says.", you are misconstruing Boynton's reference to the majority opinion.

Is it not true that Ex Parte Milligan was a unanimous decision?
