Yeah, but ... it doesn't even rely on the legislative history and in fact suggests the statutory text overrides the history, which I suppose is why Scalia didn't write separately, but still, what a snide man he is.
My best guess is that he just objected to the Court discussing statutory history at all. One wonders if he requested that it be put in a separate section so he could not join in that part.
