"unreasonable" (search and seizure) is a term in the Constitution...as is "speedy" (trial), "excessive" (bail), "cruel and unusual" (punishment).
IMO and understanding, these are intentionally vague.
These werent invented BY the courts, but were envisioned to be subject to interpretation by the courts.
