It should be legal, yes. As it should be legal for private business owners to discriminate as well.

It would be terrible for them economically, as one would hope they would lose customers due to the policy, but that's what it should be.

I just finished reading the whole opinion, and yeah I think Justice Thomas would agree with you. He, in his concurrence, is super hostile to any sort of racial preference or protection. Holy Moly is this guy angry about racial preferences for anything. He started his concurrence with a history of slavery and proceeds through an excruciatingly detailed legal history of how we got rid of it. If he were here in the thread, he'd probably say "you are bound by your own predilections, as afforded to you by the Constitution, but if those predilections manifest harm in your result, you will find no quarter with me."
