The question asks: 'The U.S. Supreme Court’s opinion in Abramski v. U.S. is an example of:'

First, note that the provided data shows the answer field as ["Purposive legal reasoning."] but the answer_options field is empty. Without explicit options to evaluate, we cannot systematically compare each choice as requested. In such a case, we can still discuss the core idea the question is targeting and why a particular characterization is used in this context, while recognizing the absence of alternative options.

Abramski v. United States (2012) is commonly understood in the context of statutory interpretation. The Court interpreted the Gun Control Act in light of its purpose: to prevent straw purchases and other forms of evading firearm regulations. This requires looking beyond the literal text alone to understand why the statute exists and how its provisions are meant to operate in practice. In that sense, the decision reflects purposive (or purposive-interpretive) reasoning, where the judge considers the law’s underlying objectives and societal aims when determining how to apply the statute to a given fact pattern.

If one were to contrast purposive reasoning with other interpretive approaches often discussed in law schools:
- Purely textual or literal interpretation would focus strictly on the words of the statute, potentially underemphasizing policy objectives; Abramski’s approach is typically seen as engaging with purpose. 
- Originalist or originalist-inspired readings would emphasize the text as understood at the statute's enactment, sometimes downplaying modern policy concerns; Abramski’s framework tends to align more with a functional, purpose-driven reading.
- Policy-based or pragmatic interpretations prioritize real-world consequences and effects of applying the law, which can resemble purposive reasoning but may be broader in scope; Abramski’s reasoning fits within the purposive/legal-interpretive tradition that seeks alignment with statutory aims.

However, given that there are no explicit options to evaluate, we cannot map each incorrect or alternative choice to specific critiques or misunderstandings. The missing options limit a fully itemized comparison, but the core concept remains: Abramski is frequently described as an example of purposive legal reasoning because it emphasizes the statutory purpose and real-world policy goals behind the Gun Control Act when interpreting who counts as a purchaser and how the statute should be applied.
