This is true. It made no sense to grant the motion to PA, as that would have complicated the TX case which sought very similar relief from PA/MI/WI/GA.
SCOTUS does what it wants so it probably wouldn't have been as big of a deal for them, but it would have given the defense an argument that they shouldn't grant a 4-state injunction since they have already granted a very similar if not identical injunction to one of those four.

This was a good move by SCOTUS.
