UK triggers the official Brexit process in a letter to EU

Sure. Lets say the UK wants to implement an immigration point system for evaluating which immigrants to let in. They can't do that while being in the EU.

That is a condition that every EU member state abides by.

Demanding special treatment and not getting it is not a failing of the EU, but of the UK.

The question that was asked was "what laws is the UK unable to implement because of the EU".

And I gave an example. The EU prevents the UK from making this law. And if the UK wants to pass this law (which it does!!!), then it needs to leave the EU.

This is a perfectly valid reason for leaving the EU. Because the EU doesn't let you do this thing that you want to do.
