There will surely be a new scam, but it won't be as lucrative. If the court can only harm business of local interest then it's much less likely to do harm.

but it will be harder to make the troll's arguments to the juries in places where productive companies actually supply jobs

Yes, it's surely progress. I'd prefer punitive action in addition to the preventive measures. Corruption of the court system itself is heinous.
I wonder what the patent-scam scum will pivot to. Probably making sure no one in the Eastern District of Texas maintains a regular business there, then creating new cancerous jurisdictions elsewhere in the USA, perhaps Delaware. That's probably too hard a nut to crack. I think the cancer will metastasize.
