I'm not cherry picking anything. Those who think the case was a "win" are oblivious as to what the court said without coming out and saying it. They did that a couple of years later. The Right you had to Keep and Bear Arms PRIOR to Heller is not the same "right" you were left with afterward. Heller reduced the Right to a privilege. That's not cherry picking; it is a significant difference.
Care to provide evidence of this interpretation? To my knowledge, the most sweeping federal legislation ever implemented was the AWB of 1994; this occurred well before the Heller decision and was allowed to ride out its entire course! Since the Heller decision, we have seen only a bump stock ban at the federal level.
If the 2nd Amendment was so much stronger before Heller, how do you explain the extreme restrictions that were allowed under the 1994 AWB?
