Congress does have power over the courts though. They have as much power in the checks and balances sense over the judiciary as they do over the executive. They can cut the judiciary’s budget. They can investigate the judiciary. The issue is that Congress refuses to use that power.

I don’t disagree but institutionalized powers matter more than formal powers, and the relationship between Congress and the agencies has more accountability institutionalized in than that between Congress and the courts
