Is it me

Nope, not just you - if I'm reading this right, that's EXACTLY what they're saying. And if so, it has much larger ramifications for down the road...

It will be interesting to see how this applies to private law schools and universities.

Note that the "point system" is struck down and not necessarily the "decision process", i.e. race can still be considered at the graduate and undergraduate level.

In this sense the point system could be considered more fair since it would be theoretically possible to overcome the race point bias with intelligence scores, grades, admission statements and community service. Instead an admissions committee now can just decide whatever composition of ethnicity they want and go from there, and there is nothing stopping this at the undergraduate level.

I am genetically unique having no twin or genetically identical sibling. Does that make me a minority of one?
