I would offer this analysis. The limit of inter-state insurance...makes as much sense as limiting the production and sale of orange juice...to only the state that grows the oranges. The same logic would work for states with natural gas....they should only be able to sell their natural gas within that state.

Indeed. I think the clause had more to do with preventing interstate tariffs and other such things.
