As in the whole article cited, no mention is made of the power of any other branch of government but the Legislative, it cannot be said that any of the limitations which it contains extend to any of the other branches.

Ummmm......... this would support the idea that the executive branch is not bound by Art. 1, section 9.

Ummmm, no. The justice didn't put sarcasm tags in. He wrote, "Again, the power of repealing a law and that of suspending it (which is a partial repeal) are Legislative powers."
