I guess you have much more faith in Congress then I do. If you're just going have them make any law they want and depend on voters to decide what laws are good or not then why have a Federal Constitution at all? We could just discard it and have a parlimentary democracy like Great Britain. It has to have some legal weight. It's not just a guide for lawmakers. It's the Law of the Land that the Judicial Branch makes sure the other two branches follow. There is never just one interpretation of a text especially a text that was written centuries ago. Obviously a judicial decision is always going to provoke enmity amongst various people, some, like this one, more then others. I'd just rather not throw out the baby with the bathwater.
