Judicial systems are meant to apply laws contextually based on actual facts, not condemn anyone who falls into a gray area.

But that's hard, and maybe unfair, and it barely scales.

EDIT:

Somewhat more productively, one wonders if this is a side effect of there being simply so many ways to get pulled into court--parking citation, drug possession, etc. I could understand if we took a more bureaucratic approach simply to keep up with the "demand".
