Again, IANAL... But what you seem to be telling me is that there was no means for dealing with frivolous lawsuits prior to the '20s, as that is the purpose of 'standing'... Perhaps that is so - That the bucolic days of yore were more honest and forthright, and our courts were not overburdened...
But standing certainly finds precedent in common law - That precedent being valid in the basis if in nothing else. The demand to show injury and that the court can legally offer redress is no invention of late.

Consider: 200,000 fraudulent votes basically removes the votes of two thirds of the voters in my State in 2020.
While popular vote is not the determining factor, that was just one State where that many votes were counted that exceeded the number of eligible voters.
We are far enough down the proverbial sunlight pipeline already, but to have some damned urban area back East conjure up enough votes to negate most of the votes in my State is damned repugnant to me, and to have them get away with it, well, that dog don't hunt.
As of today, if it is made in Georgia, originates in Georgia, grown in Georgia, even passes through Georgia, I'm not buying it. Ditto Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
I can't get relief from the courts, I'll just do my little bit.
