You left out this part:

...In all the other cases before mentioned, the Supreme Court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the Congress shall make. (bold mine)

I find that much overlooked clause particularly relevant to the discussion.

I've not overlooked that clause.

In the case of federal statutory interpretation by the SC, congress can of course legislate changes to laws that they originally passed.

SC Consitutional decisions remain beyond further review.

My reading of the phrase “...and under such regulations as the Congress shall make.” leads me to the conclusion that the congress has the power to put whatever they wish off limits to the court. They can bar even the consideration by the court of anything they wish IF they have the courage.
