That’s definitely true, but I’d still say the president shouldn’t even have the power to issue such decrees. Many of these things wouldn’t even happen if the president would first have to convince the legislative body (even if controlled by his own party) to write a law. Reverting an already issued decree is harder than saying no beforehand, and politically much more delicate.

So you willingly let the party with the long list win by not voting? Totally makes sense.

Also they started a Civil War after that, given the domestic political situation that’s not too far off either.
