My dad was fond of saying, whenever we got into a debate and he wanted to terminate the discussion, “Well it’s all relative.” That morphed into, “Let’s get along, we are all relatives.”

Two recent cases, Hangey v. Husqvarna Professional Products, 2023 Pa. LEXIS 1578 (S. Ct. November 22, 2023)(Dougherty, J.), and Dinardo v. Kohler, 2023 Pa. LEXIS 1583 (S. Ct. November 22, 2023)(Todd, C.J.), are examples of “relativity” in the law, or perhaps just perspective.
