My opinion is that Probable Cause is too high of a standard for this. Articulable Reasonable Belief is a much better standard for enforcing laws that we all on this site should want enforced. Meth makers and illegal pot growers appreciate it though.

OP is correct though. A few abusing this are the reason for the ruling. These things are like a pendulum and swing back and forth all the time. This time it just went all the way to the left. I don't know how long it will take but eventually it will swing back the other direction and hopefully stop in the happy medium.
