Wow. I completely believe you, but I'm stunned at the ignorance. Anybody who believed that inspections of primary producers weren't going to take place was simply looking through rose-colored glasses. Ashcroft was chastised for not having done any inspections, that's why they rushed through the process of updating the regulations in the first place, so one needed only put two and two together to figure it out. Of course there weren't any secondary producer inspections since it wouldn't make sense to spend the resources doing those until the underlying legal issues were resolved, but there was plenty left untouched by the injunction to allow inspections of primary producers to go forward.
