Human discretion is the bedrock of modern legal systems across the world -- at the risk of inappropriately quoting an aphorism on HN, there are exceptions to every rule.<p>Such exceptions are sometimes codified in law, but the idea is that our legal system is based on trust rather than technical correctness. Not only do we defer judgement to a jury of our peers rather than rigid and uncompromising interpretation of the law, but we trust that all levels of government (judicial, executive, legislative) will act in our best interest rather than the letter of the law.<p>What you&#x27;re proposing would require broad-sweeping revisions to all manner of law.
