In particular, such legislation would have to pass the House. Each representative in the House can decide: "Do I want to be one of 435 representatives, and represent a significant number of people, or do I want to be one of some larger number of representatives, and have correspondingly less power, both in DC and at home?" Given that calculus, I'd be surprised if the House passed any such thing.

To be clear, one does not need an amendment to increase the size of the House.
Changing the size of the House can be done through normal legislation after a Census.
Yeah, but it's extremely unlikely to happen that way
