(A) than any chief justice in history
(B) historically than any other chief justice
(C) than have those of any chief justice in history
(D) in history as any other chief justice has had
(E) than those of any other chief justice in history

OA is E but I am confused between C and E

It is E.

You are comparing the decisions of John Marshall with those made by others.

here comparisons are between the effect of X's decisions vs Y's decision.

Only (E) shows this comparison correctly.

"than those (decisions) of any other chief justice in history"
