It was so important to the Framers that they made an amendment specific to it.
I do agree with your general point though.
Sure, and that is where precedent matters and why I think we end up in a weird place when people try shopping for the right SCOTUS groups to change precedent. The only reason the system works is because SCOTUS recognizes precedent and tries to keep to it, if everyone just starts ditching it then we are in a real constitutional crisis and that is what my real fear is.
