Solon the decision may be well written it may be a reasonable interpretation of the constitution, but it is not unassailable. It is not the only possible result of rational consideration of the constitution.

The decision is not even unassailable in terms of it being final settled law. It only covers on federal district, and it could be overturned.

And even if it was settled law, it is quite possible to have contempt for a specific law or judicial decision without having contempt for the constitution or the rule of law in general.
