And even if they had — which they didn’t — it would’ve been OVERTURNED 23 years later, in the definitive citizenship case of US v. Wong Kim Ark.

It may be the law, but it's a crappy decision and opinion.

The 6 Justices who agreed on the majority opinion (against only 2 dissenters) also discussed the implications of such status for Presidential eligibility.

It was five, not six. One of the justices was not present. I suggest you read that dissent. It's a lulu. More importantly, read the pedigree of the justices. That opinion, the justices, and the dissent are discussed here.
