And if former President Elizabeth Warren decided that certain top-secret documents dealing with nuclear weapons technology were so interesting that she wanted to keep them when she left office, that would be okay, too?  

Is that what that case that you cited said?

Yes, that's the ruling. The President has sole discretion. If there's a dispute the National Archives has recourse, but as a civil matter an armed raid by the FBI is not in the prescription for resolution. That's why this is egregious, because it was done specifically to discredit Trump not because he did anything wrong.
