Um actually that is what an "amendment" is. It is the literal ability to change the Constitution.
Chimp is right, while not impossible, it is damned hard to do so.
The actual point being made is that you don’t NEED an amendment to change the number of justices on the Supreme Court. The Constitution doesn’t specify how many there should be.
Anomalocaris is perfectly correct. The number of justices is determined by statute, not by amendments.
