The law is a very blunt tool. I do not let it override my sense of morality. I see it more as a visible but incomplete and faulty consensus.
I think "Shut up and show me your code" is another way to enforce a morality, and it ends up with a different form of segregation, expressed well be Alan Cooper's book "The Inmates Are Running the Asylum". I prefer egalitarianism over the false promises of meritocracy.
