6. Not going to happen today. Somebody would have to allege "contempt" and bubble up the case through appeals

I'm not a lawyer and I could easily be partially or completely wrong. But I have not heard of the Court just writing any statement or ruling on its own without an actual active case before it. The Garcia ruling means that phase is finished as far as the Court's business goes and it was returned to lower courts. As far as I know.

And please don't use "unchartered territory". Rupert's Land in Canada was chartered territory centuries ago because the King of England issued a charter to the Hudson's Bay Company for trading there. The word you are looking for is "uncharted", which mean unmapped territory, an area which is mostly unknown. A map is a chart. A directive granting rights and responsibility is a a Charter.
