The GOP should have gone for stronger population equality and eliminated additional Democratic seats in the Pittsburgh metro.

What's the partisan composition of the Pennslyvania Supreme Court?  Does it have a reputation among Republicans as a liberal activist court like Florida's?

You have it backwards. A liberal activist court that drew maps that better adhered to the criteria would be benefiting the Republican party. They could have been far more ruthless with the maps (at the expense of some of their own incumbents, but better for the party overall).

One could easily eliminate 2 SWPA seats rather than 1.
