I've always been fascinating by Dames & Moore v. Regan. Justice Rehnquist, the future Chief Justice, writes a landmark separation of powers ruling. And at the time his law clerk was John Roberts, also the future Chief Justice. I've explored before how Roberts contributed little or nothing to that written opinion. Back then, the Justices handled emergency docket cases on their own.
In the tariffs case, Roberts basically implored counsel to not even cite the case.
