As I learned from
Rawley, your contention is accurate except for the time limit of two years.
Immigration “court” is a misnomer. It isn’t really a court.
Yes it is a court.

But, if an illegal alien )here less than two years) challenges an immigration officer’s conclusion, then the illegal alien can go to “Court.”.
Of course, if the procedure is actually different, I’d like to see the cite.
(ii) No entitlement to hearings and appeals. Except as otherwise provided in this section, such alien is not entitled to a hearing before an
immigration judge in proceedings conducted pursuant to section...
If illegal alien is caught on our side of the border as he illegally enters, he gets all but immediately returned. Almost no questions asked. And practically zero delay.
Switch up the time frame. Make it so that the illegal alien is here for a bit longer but less than two years. Guess what? Yep! He or she still gets only that opportunity to speak to an immigration officer.
See ya!
But that’s where the line is drawn. Come here illegally and remain here illegally for over two years, that rule no longer pertains
