I think you’re operating with a very limited understanding of what goes into law. Law isn’t like programming. There’s no compiler. There’s no specific target machine code to which all laws must boil down to. You can’t automate law, since the desired outcome for each case is not known from the start. That’s the whole “justice is blind” saying. The issue is that the laws governing corporations were written by corporations and have lots and lots of loopholes. To match your analogy: You’re suggesting an entire codebase rewrite when, truthfully, we need to refactor our laws surrounding what corporations can and can’t do and what punishment should be for corporations and the people that run them. A rewrite always sounds appealing when you first join a project, before understanding why architecture decisions were made in the first place. What specifically do you think is inapt or archaic about our legal system other than the individuals that make it up?
