there really needs to be some form of formal judicial penetration testing. Just because something might no longer be relevant doesn't mean it is not worth examining if such a thing was legal or not. similarly, when a new law goes into effect, it would be nice to have a way of testing the edge cases of that law in court before they become relevant to any actual human beings.
oh I absolutely agree, but the rule of law is still important. With how vaguely laws are written, and how impactful some precedents have been, I just think it would be nice to be able to set such precedence without waiting for someone's life to get ruined first.

We aren't ruled by laws, we are ruled by people. Always, no exceptions.
The idea that you can engineer a perfect system and set it loose like a god-machine is what got us into this mess in the first place.
