There's another meaning?
Seriously? For the last hundred years or so, packing the court has meant to add seats to the Supreme Court. STACKING the court has meant filling vacant seats with partisan judges.
The term "court packing" stems from FDR's attempt to increase the number of justices on the SCOTUS to 15 in 1937. It's what it's always meant. Well, til recently when it actually hurts the Democrats and Biden to be in favor of it.
