Nobody reasonably expects all laws to be written completely unambiguously. But since laws (and indeed all manner of legal documents) are filled with lists and modifiers, I don't think it's unreasonable to require that they be written to a certain standard which defines how these lists and modifiers should be interpreted, similar to RFC 2119 https://microformats.org/wiki/rfc-2119.
