Any sufficiently stupid law is indistinguishable from madness. Politicians who want laws that actually make no sense don't care if they make sense, they want some end result regardless of whether it is possible. Like the infamous quote from Australia "in Australia we obey the laws of Australia, not the laws of math". Reality eventually wins, but not before people or countries are damaged forever.
