Your comment is a good representation of the contrary opinion expressed today, but I think you are relying on the Congress and SCOTUS to do what they are tasked to do and have failed to do for as long as I can remember or know, with only one or two exceptions for the last 90 or so years..
The CC is now necessary because Congress and Scotus as well as the Federal Appeals system require further direction (regulation) by the Constitution in order to correct decades of intentional misinterpretation and bad law used as precedent to judge todays bad law..
All this is in fact the purview of Congress but they have failed to act on it, and will continue to fail to act.
As far as I am concerned, we have only this one option remaining, and if we don't use it, then society will continue to break down, replacing our republican form of government with a top down command and control socialist system that will continue to degrade the Constitutional protections.
After that, it will be chaos, and it will happen like a snowball rolling down a mountain.
States must interpose themselves between the People and the Federal government, Congress & SCOTUS have no say. They and the Executive have worked in combination to expand their power beyond their authority.
