Further, the SC could simply ratify the "It's a State isssue" standard and do so in a manner that essentially washes their hands of the issue.

Well until the federal gov recognizes gay marraige they have not really accieved anything. I could see this becoming an issue in the next election. So in 30 days they can start to marry and in a few years after that we can watch them start to divorce and hate each other. How many of these relationships have stayed together because they had the common cause to fight for this right? They now get the right and one night look over at their partner and wonder WTF have I done.
