> U.S. law though is highly non-autistic

When the judge and officers of the court agree with me, the law is reasonable and just, but when they do not agree with me, the law is arbitrary and capricious. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Having the law be whatever it's thought to be by police, prosectors, judges, and others can lead to obvious injustices, but there's been no serious attempt to remove ambiguity in any country's legal code as far as I know.

It’s impossible to remove (even just nearly) all ambiguity.

People already complain that there are too many laws on the books.
