I was at Judge Posner's speech with Declan, and you're right that Posner didn't praise the challenge on the merits, or suggest how he would rule in such a case if it had come before him. However, Judge Posner did leave the impression that he was sympathetic with the challenge from a policy standpoint. (In fact, several points in his talk seemed to echo your recent work.) I gather that's what Declan was trying to report.
