Law is like computer code, if:

- your compiler was AI-complete and adversarial and hated you

- your compiler was also not bound by any hard rules and could emit undefined behavior at any time

- your job scheduling and orchestration system was AI-complete and adversarial and actively hated you

- your runtime library had 50 different incompatible canonical implementations and can only be run by being forked by publicly-elected officials who blindly merge patches from bad-faith lobbyists

- the documentation for any of those 50 runtime libraries is paywalled per page behind https://pacer.uscourts.gov/pacer-pricing-how-fees-work if you're lucky

- the IDE is Microsoft Word, and the linter is a summer associate on their tenth cup of coffee

- you will inevitably get a non-technical client who thinks that the more times you have "notwithstanding the foregoing" in your code the more you can call yourself Web Scale
