You can be assured that what ever references to "trick or acrobatic flying" will be challenged by the AOPA (aopa.org) . Those rules/laws are the domain of the FAA.

Sounds like too long of a winter and it froze their brains.

This was passed in a lame duck session (December 11, 2002) as part of
a big omnibus crime act that covered everything from "adulteration of
butter and cream", to "trick or acrobatic flying" to "false weights and
measures", mostly increasing fines and/or jail for existing offenses.
Michigan is a leader in overcrowding its prisons.

There was other lame duck legislation passed, before a new Governor
took office, almost all of it bad for civil liberties!
