Although she disagrees with our conclusion, Slaughter at least accepts many of our premises. She agrees, for instance, that officers with “purely executive functions,” like the “postmaster in Myers,” must be removable at will by the President. Tr. of Oral Arg. 93. She agrees that “Seila Law is correct.” Id., at 115. And she agrees that “the Vesting Clause of Article II . . . establish[es] a general default presidential removal power.” Id., at 136.
