There was no way the Supreme Court was going to make a ruling that didn’t provide a backdoor for former, current, and future presidents. Mainly because it might open the door to some of the decisions a president makes that could be perceived as having criminal fallout. For example, ordering a strike (missile or something else) that results in collateral damage to civilians. Official acts is one of the super broad statements that’s open to interpretation and will take years of case law (if that ever happens) to narrow down to what it actually means.
