Statutes are frequently written in vague terms with the intent of having the executive branch make a reasonable interpretation, e.g. the rule-making body says "The park shall be kept clean and well maintained," and the executive branch comes up with their interpretation. Problems can arise when people with wealth and money at stake take issue with the executive branch's interpretation. They can do things like take judges on vacations, get into beneficial financial transactions with them, and do expensive favors for them or their family members. Then, when those people end up with cases before the Supreme Court, because there are absolutely no enforceable ethics rules, the justices conveniently discover that there are principles at stake.
