Can you imagine SCOTUS declaring us US citizens ?

DACA was in place for ~7 years. Think about it.
Amerasians were war children of a local mother and generally somewhat identified US soldier. In this case they mostly stretched jus sanguinis rather than just shrugged and decreed a random group to be US Citizens. Caravan children have more of a standing to be decreed US Citizens under INA 301(f) than we ever will.

Also it wasn't just decreed by the US Supreme Court, congress actually passed a bill after a few attempts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Homecoming_Act.
