The majority opinion was actually kinda bad.

5 AJs + CJ ruled that “longstanding arrangements between the political branches” and/or “the ballot box” were valid ways to determine constitutionality.

Scalia, in his concurrence, called this “the adverse possession theory of constitutionality”.

The literal text of the constitution could only carry 3 votes.
