    If it were only always used to bypass bureaucracy and do beneficial things.

    Downside of that rule is that people or businesses can do a lot of damage if the “forgiveness” has a lower cost than the profits to be had by skipping the permission part.

      Yeah there’s a lot of moral/ethical calculus that should be done when attempting to circumvent rules. Unfortunately, people who are looking to circumvent rules are not usually the people who would reliably do that calculus.

      Kind of the same thing for political revolution. If you’re willing to go beyond the state apparatus to achieve your ends, are you also going to be dedicated to rule-following after the revolution is done? It’s a tough thing.
