"Unenumerated rights" can be thought of as an inverse second stage to a positive/natural law dichotomy reflecting the scope of positive law's presented rationale. Rather than positive laws arising unhindered from an original clean-slate 'natural law' ideal; natural laws, recolored as they are by an environment made relative to an existing positive law structure, come to be regarded as implied by that positive law as additionally true. In other words: instead of positive law filling an undefined condition to approximate natural law, unenumerated rights are natural law flowing from the defined condition of positive law in the image of such law.
