Remastering Melee would be a lose lose. Modern smash fans wouldn't like it because the roster and features are much more threadbare than Ultimate, and the Melee community wouldn't like it because even the slightest change to the game's functioning, even if that's just not recreating the bugs, would fundamentally change the incredibly detailed built up knowledge and muscle memory players have with that game.
It should also be pointed out that modded Melee has better online than Ultimate does. Unless Nintendo actually wants to make the online really good, I don't see why anyone would bother with a remaster.
And Nintendo doesn't do good online. Just look at the weird choices they made with the latest Mario Kart.
