Clear and simple rules help a lot. If you say “I want to talk to a lawyer” - anything after that is not admissible. Full stop. This is generally enforced. Same with Miranda warnings. The problem is clear rules tend to be a bit arbitrary. Can you change the wording on a Miranda warning a bit? Why that specific wording? So instead we have very unclear, but more constitutionally rigorous rules.
