Yeah, imagine having to regularly vote on something like "Art. 2.17b GCrL shall be amended to exclude entities as described under Art. 90 IndRegR". Didn't vote? Oops, that one made it functionally impossible to sue companies for negligence. And the one almost identical-sounding one next to it would've lowered your tax burden by 5%.
A state is a hideously complex thing and I don't want to have to care about how the Regulation on the Valuation of Asset-Backed Financial Instruments in the Leasing Sector (1987) works or how paragraph 3 of the MONKEEZ Act potentially conflicts with TRIPS.
