They absolutely have boundaries that a lawyer or prosecutor can use to make a case in a court of law. How do you think the law works? Interpretation of laws is a big part of how the common law system works.

You can't prosecute someone for robbery if all they did was jaywalking. Media laws have clear boundaries sufficient for legal professionals to do their job. Building codes have clear boundaries sufficient for legal professionals to do their job.
