Exactly. They can overturn the law without going as far as Hiibel wants them to.

That would accomplish nothing since we would soon be back in the same boat. They have to rule on a broader basis to resolve the jurisdictional conflict.

Not necessarily; they could lay out clear rules that overturned the law but fell short of what Hiibel wants. (And if they did leave things incompletely decided, it wouldn't be the first time; look at how often they've revisited affirmative action.)
