&#62;<i>What is needed is clear and concise law that does not bog down the process and micromanage what should be left open for interpretation.</i><p>I don't think that works.<p>In a legal system based on precedent the more that is left open to interpretation the more big cases one needs to decide what the locus of the law is.<p>Then it's not a case of getting your lawyer to read the law in order to understand the majority of what's allowed but instead they can only know a minority of the law from the statute and have to infer the majority from the caselaw.<p>When the law is drafted perhaps a book of usecases should be created such that those that draft the law can agree on a list of common uses and whether those things are intended to be allowed or not.
