That's like saying Linux doesn't have sandboxed apps because chmod -R 000 /var will break your system. Technically sort of right, but not a useful or interesting observation.

I think the thing you said about priors is repeating a talking point about prosecution or sentencing disparities that isn't particularly relevant in the context of an arrest. I have no idea what you mean about multiple charges.
