Okay, hang on. Another try.
Human beings are infinitly complex in their choices and actions. Everytime a law is added to society you add an infinite number of ways the law could be misinterpreted and explioted.
Laywers love complexity because it gives them wiggle room. Engineers love efficiency meaning reductions in complexity. If you have a system that is irreducibly complex then you cut out the glut and mess and have smooth operation as far as human error or malfeasance is not introduced. I believe that it is better to have systems that help align human incentives as far as possible. Rational humans should take responsibility for their desires and circumstanced and not petition or lobby a higher power to brute force compliance onto a populace.
State intervention in affairs where there is no victim causes more harm than good. Hurt feelings or fear of confronting someone for inconvenience is not a matter requiring automation of state interference.
Then we might just as well be living in a mental institution.
