It doesn't just contain nice stuff, and sometimes it flat contradicts the visible ink portion.
The power to suspend habeas corpus is expressly assigned by the visible ink portion to the Congress.
Lincoln fibbed the power was his in the invisible ink portion during the Civil War, and FDR repeated the lie for the utterly unnecessary and cruel purpose of throwing Americans of Japanese origin into illegal concentration camps.
Oh, and the list of emergency powers conferred by blatantly unconstitutional legislation on the presidency is downright terrifying.
Especially with Fyodor Karamazov in the White House.
