Does this mean (IANAL) that we have no means of redress at all if an ineligible POTUS slips through the system?

Does the fact that a lot of people were injured negate the fact that I as an individual was still injured and that I still have rights?

It means that citizens/voters cannot seek redress in the Courts. However, no ineligible POTUS should slip through the system of the general election if we, the voters, are doing our jobs correctly. And, if one does "slip through," then Congress and -- according to all these cases, only Congress -- has the power to address the issue. So our only redress as voters is with Congress -- and the next election.

You do have means of redress. Impeachment.
