This very much does matter, because the judiciary has been the only meaningful check on Donald's dictatorial rule by fiat, and SCOTUS has, mostly, been amenable to it too.
More than anything, though, that they rushed this 'no' out prior to Election Day spares us all a lot of controversy and chaos, and that works in the favor of the electorate.
Yes MAGA will bitch about it. That's okay. They are vastly outnumbered now.
