Sorry for the unfinished sentence above (a case of noprocrast + getting distracting and submitting). I meant to say: Cases that form precedents can be a caveat. They usually are less structured than legislature, so it can be harder to parse them. Perhaps the system would work better for non-common law legislatures. However, I believe that even in the US areas like corporate law would be less influenced by precedents.
