Notably, Chief Justice John Roberts gave the government a free chance to kick the can down the road for this compared to the college admission cases in the oral arguments for one of the cases

Note for the Harvard case that it was started in 2013, resurrected in 2019, with some action in 2020 and the 2022 decision:

I'm not sure how this could possibly fail (or why it's still an issue) given the ruling in the Harvard case.
The opinions seemed very clear about using a protected status (specifically race) as selection criteria.
