It’s possible that there would be unintended bad consequences. But we can try it out and course correct if that happens. Unless there is a specific bad that will definitely happen, why should we be afraid to try things?
I’ll answer my own question: we are afraid to try new things legally because gov is unresponsive. As an example, the majority of the US has supported cannabis legalization since at least 2012. If it takes a decade and counting for the law to change to follow the will of the people, trying new things risks locking in bad policy for decades / forever.
But this law’s already been passed, so if it’s bad and should be changed we’ll need proof of specific harm
