Are you claiming that, all else equal, the government that criminalizes common acts is more stable than the government that does not?

Not necessarily. I'm saying a government that takes measures to mitigate increasing the extremes of common acts that lead to destructive behavior can be more stable.
E.g., I'm not sure the current trend of increasing access to gambling will lead to a more stable society, although it increases freedom. There's a balancing act there too.
What I'm not saying: the current policies are the best ways to mitigate those risk in order to increase stability.
