If the law is code, then law enforcement is a JITter

Optimised compiler makes sense though.

Unenforceable laws go unenforced, undefined behaviour is undefined and varies based on compiler (law enforcement agency or officer).

A jitter is like a lawyer on retainer. Law enforcement is more like the OS that segfaults you when you fail to follow the lawyers advice.
Law enforcement is more like a toddler holding a glass of water over your CPU and saying "stop transistoring!"
