I think you're right. If there is another legal remedy besides a SCOTUS ruling they will (and should) pass. In this case, there is a constitutional remedy available. Recall that all 9 justices chose to pass on ruling, it's just 7 chose to pass on hearing. I think passing on hearing is actually the best call so the evidence can be heard in a case with better standing.

ALSO, Texas technically did not have standing because it had technically not been wronged yet. I believe TX cannot sustain injury unless Sniff & Blow are inaugurated. Especially now that dueling sets of electors have been sent.

Ironically, this is the SCOTUS literally doing their exact job and ignoring all public opinion to strictly fill their role. Trump called them cowards, but he's also masterful at misdirection. He obviously wants the focus on the SCOTUS and that case would have been an excellent distraction.
