There will never be perfect laws. The idea of encoding behavior is absurd. What we need is let the laws handle the major ideas (don't kill etc) and let real live humans handle the details.

Unfortunately when you say real live humans you mean "a coin flip between getting a human or a raging authoritarian racist bully with a gun" which is why your idea doesn't work, historically. Works well for the racist bullies I suppose.

Surely we can pick our humans. Reject the "raging etc" and prefer the good ones.
