Your analysis is wrong.
From a democratic majority point of view, the current government had a very narrow majority(49.9% of cast votes) but since then it lost in all polls almost 15% of its support. The majority of Israelis clearly oppose the legistlation, and they are very very angry about it. So why would a democratic government insist on passing laws that cost it its chance to win the election and are going to be overturned by the next government, and risk a heavily antagonistic policy against the current coalition's interests, by the next likely govermnent? In a democratic framework it makes no sense. The only way it could make sense is if the current coalition is planning to break the democratic system, and engineer unfair elections, and unfair political system, like in Turkey and Hungary.
And all the coalition's rethoric and other actions hint in this way like a giant flashing neon sign the size of a skyscrapper. So as pretty as your theory may sound this is a completely different scenario. |

- supreme court been standing in the way of multiple laws that tried to free from army yeshiva students because it violates principle of equality
- supreme court tends to stand in a way of mid/low level corruption in form of appointing to different professional positions in ministries and state owned companies people without any qualification (the only qualifications been relatives or "mandate harvesters")
- judicial advisors to government/ministries who can prevent doing illegal/stupid things
religious parties want to free their students from conscription. for coalition to stay in place they need votes of religious parties. right in general been unhappy with a supreme court for many years and for past 15 years or so they claimed that it doesn't represent population.
right now stars got aligned and they decided to legalize laws in order to take some power from supreme court / select their own judges in order to advance their agenda.
it's as simple as that.
yes, it may lead to unfair elections/etc, but it's just immediate interests of involved parties
