And since they were stating the holding they left out the dicta about “natural born”:

You're not helping yourself. The part you cited says;

women, if born of citizen parents within the jurisdiction of the United States, have always been considered citizens of the United States, as much so before the adoption of the fourteenth amendment of the constitution as since

This includes a criteria of parents being citizens and it is as much a part of citizenship SINCE the 14th amendment as it was since. It means that the 14th amendment does NOT control the citizenship of people who fit this criteria MEANING the 14th amendment does NOT define natural-born citizens.

Note the *vast* difference between what the Court said, just as I quoted, and what you say the court said.
