Not to say that it wouldn't be interesting.
I think the best direction in this regard would be to allow CFJs that are not relevant to Agora directly, with some payment to compensate the judge for their time. "Agora as a ruleset interpretation service", if you like. So Agora would act entirely in a fact-finding role, not in any sort of enforcement role. (The person who commissioned Agora to come to a judgement could then do what they wanted with the resulting judgement and its reasoning.) One of the things I've been doing semi-recently is trying to apply nomic-style reasoning to the Laws of Contract Bridge, looking for scams and loopholes in them (not because I plan to exploit them, just out of curiosity and/or in an attempt to get them fixed in case somebody else tries to exploit them); they're written in a sufficiently legalistic way that that sort of analysis is possible. I imagine that there would be plenty of other "I'm curious about this"-style situations that might be worth paying the Agoran judicial system to sort out. -- ais523
