Dang, I wish all law was written like this instead of the purposefully obfuscated legalise of (lobbied) legislative lawyers meant to mislead people and slip in loopholes for their interest groups to profit of.

Clear legislature is definitely something every person in the world would benefit of - if the the country's administration would want that.



For me, a great advantage is that this system makes it far simpler to understand the impact of a change, say a multi-pronged bill incl millionaire taxes, energy subsidy changes etc.

Much harder to hide some impact under the carpet
