They are by the Constitution the final arbiters of the meaning of the Constitution. The power of Congress to exclude the courts is pretty clear in the Constitution.

So congress could pass a law that says the 2nd amendment only applies to state militias, state that the courts have no jurisdiction in the matter, and it's settled? I don't like the implications of your interpretation.
