No, I don't think that was it. How many cops have been able to bullshit Ouija (drug) dogs as PC while just deferring to the "experts" to bullshit how they're trained and how a dog that barely works better than a coin flip is a legally valid process for establishing PC? As long as they have some document that shows they followed the process vetted by some expert witness that has had 5 years of practice on creating so much bullshit artistry you can never disprove it all without going bankrupt, then they usually get away with.

There's endless armies of people (immigration 'judges' are a big one) that do totally fraudulent process but because it's dressed up in all the right deflective language and credentialism it gets a pass. DOGE was new enough they didn't brief their employees on all the magic mumbo jumbo phrases to say yet. Given a few more years and you'd have people doing the exact same damn thing except answering depositions with the right magic deflections that they'd get away with it. Given more time, they'd have their DEI legal equivalent of a drug dog.
