The point is to cause obstruction and attention. Force them to show that they don’t respect the rule of law so everyone can see it, people like the idea of “mavericks who don’t bend a knee to bureaucracy” but when it’s obvious that they can (and will) take your livelihood without leaving you with any legal recourse, a lot of people are less enthusiastic. And if the courts actually put a stop to their efforts every now and then, it undermines their position of authority and shows that the power they claim to wield isn’t as far-reaching as they’d like to pretend.
They want people to give in without a fight, they want people to silently just accept their authority. Don’t give it to them for free.
