Marbury v. Madison established judicial review, which allows the SC to strike down laws as unconstitutional.

That only gives the what and how of the situation, not the why. Some explanation of why they were given that power is useful for the average citizen

Some explanation is not a dozen long online textbook pages. Especially when women as a whole in the 19th century rated four short pages.

Hang on, this was online? Not a printed book? Ok yeah, a few paragraphs and a hyperlink should cover it.

Got it. I majored in ME, and CS thankfully. I realized as soon as I graduated that schools are not a safe place for male teachers.

Just pointing out, I never said that 12 pages was appropriate, just that what you had specified was a bit too short.
