Minority Report isn't a bad idea. It's just difficult to actually execute in a fair, unbiased, way. Think of manual memory management throwing an exception on an access violation vs flat memory DOS crashing the whole system with a blue screen because the infraction is first allowed to happen. Would be nice to view source on entities while walking through reality. What better defense against criminal intention could there be?

Minority Report was a bad idea because the minority reports demonstrated that the precogs were fallible: people weren't inherently destined to carry out the crimes the precogs testimony were used to convict them of.

Right, so if done more accurately and precisely, it isn't a bad generalized idea.
