You can't think of any cases where unintended consequences dominated the equation and made the initiative completely detrimental? I can. The cookie consent popups we all have to click on every website started out with good intentions, wouldn't you agree? And how has that overall turned out? Are we educating people about privacy or are we just producing pointless pixel updates and burning the ozone layer?

Then table a bill to remove that legislation, that is entirely possible. The point being that all legislation have consequences, but it is better to move forward with the best step we could take than to stand still and do nothing.

Just as there is iteration in software, we should iterate our laws. That is what a functioning government looks like.

I don't have the time money or energy to introduce my own competing law, but I can post and try to spread my point of view, which seems to be very effective. And I agree with you, we should iterate laws, but starting with a good one is a lot better than starting with a bad one wouldn't you agree?

Definitely, and both are also a lot better than starting with none. At the end of the day, I'm not asking for perfect, I'm asking for best effort.
