Comments on the clue
1.Nice surface but dislike definition
2.I appreciate the conciseness and the pairing of her/his phrases. Maybe the cryptic definition would benefit from a '?'.
3.Barely an anagram
4.Sounding scrumptious, yet cannot make a lot of meaning out of it.
5.Hardly an anagram at all, and his case is not necessarily closed.
