This was not a “big” victory, only a judgment deferred to a later date.

There are literally TONS of questions that have never been satisfactorily resolved by the judgment of the Supreme Court, and even then, no judgment can ever be considered to be “settled law”. New interpretations arise all the time.

Case in point - the Dred Scott decision of March 6, 1857.

That was revisited rather quickly, as a massive civil war broke out related in no small part to that interpretation of the rights (or lack of them) as applied to persons held in slavery.
