Parole judges are not accountable for their work in the same way surgeons or pilots are. If a judge makes a bad call on a parole hearing, a person stays in prison and it's effectively impossible to challenge the decision. Parole hearings are extremely subjective, so it's vanishingly unlikely that a judge will face any repercussions for making a ruling which people would consider unfair.

This means that there's no pressure for them to manage the influence of factors like hunger on their decision.

Doesn’t that mean we would have established standards and practices around hunger developed by those fields?

No.

So it is impacting those highly empirical disciplines and they have managed to develop no standards and practices? But they have around food poisoning?

That doesn’t compute.
