Well it's because we want a firewall to protect judicial independence.
It's one thing to pass a law and dictate what a letter carrier might do, but to have the legislative and executive branches dictating things of the Supreme Court? That's far more fraught.
If a justice is misbehaving them they can be impeached. That's the one and only reaction provided to deal with justices without violating judicial independence.
