You obviously lack the nuanced legal mind. If the law is written clearly in plain English, we would need an order of magnitude fewer lawyers. Can’t have that, can we?
Here’s how it works: Clever lawyers are hired to write ambiguously complicated laws in legalese. Other clever lawyers are then hired to wade through the legalese, exploit the ambiguities and/or find meaning in the laws that were never intended.
Oh, and then judges, former lawyers, are then tasked to referee the two lawyers. If that isn’t a recipe for disaster I don’t know what is.
The law’s an hass, an hidiot.
