Isn’t this some kind of violation of some kind of code or something for a Supreme to venture forth like this?

To me it’s kind of scary, since the way they are situated, they are indeed “supreme”, and the scope and interpretaion of “law” has become malleable.

Jefferson had the same concerns back in 1819. He went so far as to say that decisions that had given the court exclusive final say on constitutional interpretations, as well as political independence, had resulted in “the leaven of the old mass… assimilat(ing) to itself the new” and that things were regressing so badly that “we find the judiciary, on every occasion, still driving us into consolidation” or centralization.
