Discretion is a bad thing. It's arbitrary and leads to abuse and uneven enforcement.

The perfect standard would allow both motorists and law enforcement to know where the line is. For motorists preferably before they have committed a crime.

BAC sucks. Driving while tired is just as dangerous. Objective measurements of reaction time and judgement are problematic because some drivers will fail just because.
