The Fourteenth did not overturn the Ninth's guarantee that the people retained rights not enumerated.

The Ninth hasn't been incorporated into the Fourteenth, wasn't intended to be, and can't be.

The Ninth can and does limit the federal government- including the federal courts.

The Fifth Ammendment logically is incorporated by the Fourteenth-as the SC has affirmed repeatedly.

The Ninth and Tenth Ammendments clarify and constrain the meaning of the Fifth Ammendment (as well as other Ammendments, and other part of the Constitution.) It is by this mechanism that the Fourteenth indirectly incorporates the Ninth and Tenth.
