Default OT Suspending Parliament

OT

"4. Boris Johnson has dragged the queen into the fight over Brexit.
After the U.K. prime minister asked Queen Elizabeth II last month to
suspend Parliament, a Scottish court ruled that he had abused his power
by misleading her with his rationale. Above, the two met at Buckingham
Palace in July." NYTimes

If she has no discretion, if she's a rubber stamp, how can it matter
that/if Johnson misled her? How can she be dragged in if she has no
discretion.

This isn't the US press making this up. It's the Scottish court.
