I'm curious as to how that would even be phrased in a Constitution, since those are the most abstract of legal instruments and now we have to enter a one-time exception (a very concrete measure) into it.

But to be fair to Putin, back when his words can be taken as a push for less centralization, people were horribly hostile and assuming the worst anyway. In a sense, what's the point of being nice, then...
