why didn't Solar kill the nydus? I think he had enough lings there to kill it quickly

Queens would just transfuse it

I don't understand the flying locusts, as I never build SHs anyway ... but what is the point of them spending all the time flying around and not doing anything? Wouldn't walking on the ground and shooting be better?

Symbol was one of the few Zergs with a lifetime winning record against soO anyway.

They are harrassment unit,flying locusts help bypass terrain.
Even rogue used it to harrass not in main army.

swarmhosts are really strong if you can prevent the other player from just walking across the map and killing you.
the harass is unblockable either you lose structures for free or units for free and there's no way to catch the SHs.
unfortunately 99% of the time the other player can just walk across the map and kill you if you invest into SHs.

Even though Snute asked for a switch to turn it on/off about 100 times when the SH changes were announced.

You can have enough anti-air to kill every locust before they land.
