How is the temporary shelving of SOPA proof that on over 1700 policy issues US citizens have essentially zero chance of affecting the outcome of the legislation?

As for SOPA - say hello to SOPA 2.0 http://www.uspto.gov/news/publications/copyrightgreenpaper.p...

How is that SOPA 2.0?
Try reading it. Or at least searching for the report which is commonly referred to as SOPA 2.0 by various opposition groups.

In essence however, SOPA in some form will pass and this document represents a new approach.

As someone posted before - it does not matter if it is SOPA 14.0 or SOPA 22.0 - it just needs to pass once. Very few examples of legislative repeal exist outside of social equality.
