That's why this is such a terrible decision. They went out of their way to find a reason to not address the case itself.
If the precedent this sets is that subsequent President's executive actions will take more than a full term to work through the courts to rescind, you can be damn well sure that Trump will take advantage of that on the way out.

DACA opponents are welcome to file suit against DACA alleging it was illegally created/implemented. That they relied on Trump to just rescind it, and got burned by the administration's incompetence in doing so, is on them, not the Court.
