That case had to do with voting rights in Missouri.
The quote from the decision in that case does not supercede Title 8 USC Sec 1401.

The US Code cannot supercede the Constitution. And even if it could, the US Code does not claim to define “natural born Citizen.” It only claims to define who qualifies as a citizen. So you are refuted.

Article I, section 8 grants Congress the power "To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization." It grants no power to establish rules regarding who is a native citizen, or who is a natural born citizen. So the
US Code on citizenship can Constitutionally only be an exercise of Congress' power to "To establish an uniform Rule of
Naturalization," which means any reliance on the US Code to define who is a citizen can only define who is a
naturalized citizen.

And the 14th Amendment defines as a citizen anyone born in the United States who is subject to the jurisdiction of the US when born. But it says absolutely nothing about natural born citizenship.
