    I don’t think the founders really thought that much about it. Article III was pretty much phoned in- so much so that the basic function of SCOTUS–constitutional review of the rest of the government–was created out of thin air by the Court itself. Literally all the constitution says about it is that the judicial power shall be vested in a supreme court and lower courts to be created by federal statute.
