In theory, the cool thing about UBI is that you can dismantle all that other stuff and just have the one safety net that covers everybody, replacing the piecemeal safety nets that are supposed to catch people in certain situations.

Yeah, it lessens the risk of falling through those nets and is probably cheaper, per dollar dispensed, to administrate.
