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

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.

I think I understand the reasoning (I guess) but it still doesn't seem right on some level.
