I disagree. You're essentially claiming that the need to prove an effect is removed once something is enshrined into law and that's not only illogical but dangerous to boot.

This is a gross misinterpretation bordering on trolling. I'm not sure how you could even come to this position.
Please show me how what I've actually said is illogical and dangerous. Please remember that in the scenario we are talking about neither side has provided evidence one way or the other. Somebody would need to provide evidence one way or the other to shift the status quo, as shifting that requires flipping the convictions of the population, or at least the leaders.

You seem to be more interested in the argument than the conversation. Thankfully, I no longer want either.
That's literally every law.
"Which is all to say, the onus isn’t on anyone to unjustify something that’s wrong"
The onus would be to show that "something" is wrong for that logic to even apply. As you said "you’re making the claim, you defend it.". Society already decided that it was wrong and formed a law, so now it's time to hear why it shouldn't be (I'm interested in research on either side).
