Right, but you're missing the point here that interpreting the law requires someone with a law degree, and all the real-world context that they have, and all the subtle knowledge about what things mean.

The Bible is also a short and well-known text, but if I want to answer religious questions for observant Christians, I can't just train it on that. You need a deep real world context to understand that "my buddy made SWE II and I'm only SWE I and it's eating me up" is about the biblical notion of covetousness.

And then I guess you're also missing the point that interpreting and writing the code also requires an expert and that in that respect it is no different than law. I could argue that engineering is more complex than interpreting law but that's not the point now. Subtleties and ambiguity are large in both domains. So, I don't see the point you're trying to make. We can agree to disagree I guess.
