U.S. courts do have jurisdiction over diplomats for certain things, such as suits related to commercial activities.

That's more like having jurisdiction over the diplomat's property in the country than having jurisdiction over the diplomat themselves.

Is the child of a diplomat a US citizen if they are born during a diplomat’s commercial activities?

		If the diplomat put the baby up as collateral on a loan, prior to their birth, then I think they have to be in order for the US to be able to enforce contract law relevant to the loan.

		No. Even the arguments at the time the amendment was passed discuss diplomats and their family being exempt, as well as all the instances since.
