All this talk about Biden could do all of these administrative things that he can't legally, but it misses the point.

Say he pushes some illegal orders. He can not get in trouble for pushing them, but they can be legally challenged and shot down quickly. Especially when you can legally "tip" helpful justices.

He would need to do things that could not be taken back.

You're missing the point, where the president can now legally commit an illegal act, and call it an official act, before the lawyers can deliberate, he's rounded up dissenters in the government and had them shot. No amount of lawfare raises the dead.
