Which is fine if you're being arrested, not great if you're trying to report domestic violence.

I get it, it's better like this, but it could have secondary side effects for some people.

Every law is a balance with some compromises toward or against personal and public good. Some of that balance should include alternate channels for reporting things with hazards like this.

Trying to report any crime where the victim fears repercussions. Organized crime, crime by an employer, etc.
