Problem is that all the rulings that we abhor have a purported justification in the Constitution - emanations, penumbras and whatnot.

Language that expressed concepts that the Fathers intended is not understood today. (To give benefit of doubt.) So when a justification is needed, they simply scan the Constitution and pluck out a likely phrase - “equal protection’ for example and declare it to apply and rule the day.

Levin’s suggested amendments are in plain and unambiguous English.

Perhaps an amendment that such wordings at the date of respective ratifications of the Constitution and its amendments are subject to the definitions of respective dictionary dates.
