So instead of banning dark pattern you'd rather turn the web into a stack of papers?

What better way to ban dark patterns than making "patterns" altogether infeasible? Why assume trust in a model already proven untrustworthy? Too much of the web is built on an honor system as it is.

Structure begets hierarchy begets conformity begets tyranny. Eliminate structure from the web and tyranny over the web can't emerge.

With what magic wand do you propose to enact this ban?
