It is compliance with our laws and good faith presence in the region which transforms physical residency into legal residency, and with it all the rights of a resident. Once gained those rights should be sacrosanct, but those never in compliance with the law or acting in bad faith cannot be considered to have gained them.
The real world comparison is that between a legal immigrant and an illegal immigrant. Physical presence cannot be the sole determining factor of legal residency.
