That would be judicial activism just as much as Roe.

Perhaps. But we also have RBG's own words, "Nine seems to be a good number, and it's been that way for a long time. [Packing the court], if anything, would make the court appear partisan."

Which would make the court's duties, as stipulated in the Constitution, almost impossible, because nobody would be able to trust that any decision it makes is fair.
