I wouldn't be surprised anymore. This Supreme Court basically just has carte blanche to do whatever they want, no matter the inconsistencies.
The most likely outcome to me still seems to be a narrower than expected majority ruling against the absolute immunity claim, but completely upending the Smith case and requiring a do-over. That wouldn't even matter because they'll take their sweet time to draw out the ruling and delay the trial anyway, no matter the ruling.
Them deciding to take up this case at all was always going to end in disaster. We were never going to be fortunate enough to have them just let the DC Court panel's ruling stand.
F*** the Supreme Court.
