Legally, it's a very flimsy basis on which to attack the current structure and operation of the country. It is simply untrue that Congress is not allowed to delegate its powers, and where to draw the line has always been a subjective judgment that different courts have drawn differently. https://constitution.findlaw.com/article1/annotation03.html
And frankly, I think the anti-administrative state people are on the payroll of polluters who want the regulators to be politicians who are more dependent on big business for funds.

You're in luck, my excerpt from today's court ruling is immediately followed by acknowledging more recent rulings.
> According to the Supreme Court’s more recent
formulations of that longstanding rule, Congress may grant regulatory

the recipient of the power can exercise it.
But then the hits just keep on coming
> We first conclude that Congress has delegated to the SEC what would
be legislative power absent a guiding intelligible principle.
