Furthermore, even if that were the sum of the defendant’s argument, we have never considered ourselves barred from a proper interpretation of a statute by the litigants’ specific assertions. Moreover, the defendant’s position, properly understood, simply mirrors the reasoning of the trial court in this case, and the reasoning of Judge Hennessy’s concurring opinion in the Appellate Court. See Cotto v. United Technologies Corp., 48 Conn App. 618, 632, 711 A.2d 1180 (1998) (Hennessy, J., concurring). It is difficult to understand why we should read the defendant’s reliance on those opinions more narrowly than the opinions themselves.
