The parent comment is saying we shouldn't rely on the intent of implementors of the law for our continued well being.
Pattern: propose easily misused overly broad law. When people express concern claim that the law is only to deal with problem foo and would never be used to do what it says in plain language. Proceed to do what it says you are allowed to do.
It could possibly be expressed as don't accept intent and goodwill in place of plainly expressed limits on government or regulatory power.

That's different per legal system.
In which EU or EU member state jurisdiction is that not the case, please?
That's different per legal system. In some the text is more relevant. In various others the intend behind the law is very much relevant. I highly suggest to not follow your advice!!
