Yeah, but, and I may be mistaken, but primaries are up to the parties. That means they don't have to adhere to the primary outcomes or even hold primaries to begin with. Biden could get 100% of the primary vote, but if they think he's going to lose to trump, then they could still swap him out with someone else.

in many states it's illegal for a party to violate or inappropriately change their own primary rules (e.g. they must follow strict procedures and can be accountable if they don't follow them), which, is usually a good thing right?

Yeah. Although in this case it might be better if they could.
