I'm not a lawyer, but this is clearly a technicality, the proposition writers evidently did not think it trough. It is also posing a precedent problem that could later be used for something more nefarious. Judges don't make laws they enforce them, he can't (and shouldn't) allow constitutional gaps since he's sworn to defend it.
