Still not sure WTF it all means and if it is possible for the SCOTUS to take up the case if the Trump campaign loses.
This is interesting Republican State Legislatures have filed an amici curiae (friend of the court, a way for nonparties to a legal case to submit information that they feel relevant to the case) that ballot curing was illegal in PA

Movants, Speaker of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives Bryan Cutler and Majority Leader of the House of Representatives Kerry Benninghoff (together, the “House Leaders”), by and through their undersigned counsel, seek leave to participate in this case as Amici Curiae in support of Plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction. The House Leaders seek to join in the Brief of Amici Curiae Pennsylvania Senate Republican Caucus.
This case involves a fundamental state constitutional question relating to the guarantee of secrecy in voting, as set forth in Article VII, Section 4 of the Pennsylvania Constitution. Pa. Const. art. VII, § 4. Certain counties in the Commonwealth inspected mail-in ballots cast in the 2020 Presidential Election and notified electors whose mail-in ballots lacked a secrecy envelope in order to allow those electors to “cure” the invalid ballot. This conduct of inspecting mail-in ballots to allow for “curing” deficiencies compromised the electoral process and the secrecy guaranteed under Article VII, Section 4 of the Pennsylvania Constitution.
The House Leaders, as leaders of one of the two legislative chambers integral to passing election laws in Pennsylvania, have a strong interest in the outcome of this case. They have a unique interest in ensuring that the election process satisfies constitutional requirements. Accordingly, the House Leaders seek to join the Brief of Amici Curiae Pennsylvania Senate Republican Caucus, which details the negative impact to the electoral process from the conduct of “curing” invalid mail-in ballots.
WHEREFORE, the House Leaders request that this Court grant this Motion
for Leave so that the House Leaders can join in the Brief of Amici Curiae
Pennsylvania Senate Republican Caucus.
