I'm missing how that case relates to the 10th amendment, as it seems to primarily deal with Article V.

The appellees tried to use the 10th and the Court said no and then further said the 10th is basically a legal truism.

Sorry, by "legal truism" you mean inherently enforceable because it is reinforcing a point that is taken to be true without any sort of countermand?

Your statement seems self-contradictory.
