In law, the definition of terms often matters.
For example (just as an example) someone asks if you are outside -- if you are currently inside, is your answer "yes" because you had been outside an hour ago?
Or someone ask if you are married a year after your get divorced. Is your answer yes, because you had been married before?
In the famous example you cite -- "is" means current and present tense, not past tense.
