I believe faithless electors are strictly defined as those not voting for the candidate that won the state. Therefore this ruling would prevent that. It has to go for the candidate that won the state.
states who want the compact will just change their laws to say the candidate who wins the national popular vote wins the state

That literally makes no sense.
A state could just as easily change their laws to say that "The electors of Tennessee will be bound to the candidate that the voters from the state of California chose."
And it'd have to stick?

I agree with you, just don't see how that gets past Term Limits v. Thorton when the time comes.
