I totally agree although he only wrote 5 articles for the papers - and they werent very enlightening - he also was not very well liked by Americans for his role in the Treaty with Britain as he gave up everything that the revolution was fought for - but he did stick to strict constitutionalism during the three cases the court heard under him. The big problem back then was that the Supreme court was also the court that took the role of all of the present day district courts - and actually it was his refusal to be the Chief Justice a second time that caused the establishment of actual separate District Courts to relieve the burden on the supreme court - they didnt have cars back then so they had to go on horseback to different districts for cases
