> If I am the sole shareholder of a corporation, I and the company are distinct legal entities.
Perhaps, but probably not. The ease of corporate veil piercing is inversely proportional to the number of involved parties.
> An incorporated association? Legally distinct and visible to a court.
which means that it is easier to sue as an entity.
> The objection is that "it's too hard to define legally". Nonsense.
I never made that argument. Stop with the strawmanning. I said that there is no way to limit the ability of companies to petition the government without simultaneously limiting the ability of individuals to do so as well. The previous regulations we had were easily bypassed.

That enforcement is difficult and imperfect is different from whether it is possible or desirable.
