Of course they do. The thesis that a sitting POTUS cannot exercise options under legal loopholes to challenge an election is absolutely "novel," and stupid. The idea that an ex-POTUS should be prosecuted by the DOJ for something "no reasonable prosecutor" would pursue is absolutely "novel," and dangerous.

How? The fact that he is a President doesn't change anything. There is established case law on these issues and nothing novel is involved in the theories of the cases.

Florida doesn't even involve this issue.

Now you are making assumptions to fit your argument.

That's why a specific definition is needed; to avoid just this sort of malleability.
