I think the problem with this judgement is that you dismissed R101(ii)
too quickly.  TITE explictly claims precedence over the Inquiry courts
for resolving "matters of controversy" involving contracts and claims
to be the process for resolving contract disputes.  Thus, a blocking of 
the equity court does indeed have the potential for violating R101(ii) 
rights, even though an inquiry case could be called - the fact is that 
inquiry cases aren't the specified "formal process" for these particular 
matters of controversy.  TITE may be a buggy formal process, but it is
the formal process in question.
