I don't see the words "natural born" in the 14th amendment. It did nothing to change the meaning of that term. And it did not intend to do so. The intent was to make citizens of the freed slaves. Full Stop. It has the side effect of making anyone, regardless of their parentage, born in the US, a citizen of the US, But it says nothing about Natural Born. No court case has turned on the meaning of Natural Born Citizen. So despite centuries of dicta on the subject, as case that did turn on the meaning, which could only be a Presidential Eligibility case, would/will be a case of first impression. No "settled law", no binding precedent. Just a knock down drag out over the original meaning or understanding of the term as used in the Presidential eligibility clause of Article II Section 1 of the Constitution.
