You're right about the outcome SpaceX is seeking. But the critical thing you're missing is the argument they are making against NLRB. The legal arguments aren't really about the specific facts of the case but, rather, about constitutional issues that go to the heart of how NLRB adjudicates labor disputes. From the article:

> It claims the NLRB’s proceedings, which involve a hearing in front of an NLRB administrative law judge (ALJ), violate SpaceX’s “constitutional right to trial by jury.” The company also accuses NLRB of violating the Constitution’s rules on the separation of powers, stating the agency’s structure “is miles away from the traditional understanding” of the concept.
