I prefer rigid, clear-cut laws that may be bypassed by loopholes to flexible laws that may be applied at the whim of judges. I worry less about people doing clever tricks to save a few bucks and more about the government abusing loosely-written laws against me.

And I guess I'm more concerned with companies using loopholes to sidestep environmental protections, and other such things

imo. it's usually big players who have the time and the lawyers to exploit loopholes in the first place.

won't deny that there is downsides though
