As your quote stated :- "part of strategy to push back against rush of state laws". Of course, if the makeup of Congress etc changes, then they could return full control to the individual states.
States can do whatever they are competent to do. By definition they cannot do what they are not competent to do. Even if they try, their actions will be struck down by the Supreme Court. States can make laws around access to abortion but they can’t ban it. They are not competent to do so because it is unconstitutional.

I didn’t say that, nor have I linked to anyone who did.
