One of the lesser ones, not the one you wanted if your comments are representative of your thought processes.

> Your baseless claim that my argument is incomplete is itself without ground.

All policies are evaluated based on net benefit to society. I explained why your argument didn't meet that standard. If you didn't understand it, that is your problem.

Again your ad hominem and baseless assumptions are irrelevant.

Net benefit - is your made up argument.

Is this “net benefit” in the room with you right now? Perhaps you could quantify it, if you could find any

I already explained that this is how all policies are evaluated, not on arbitrary fraud thresholds. I cannot make you understand it any more than I can make you smart enough to have been accepted at your preferred university.
