By virtue of the first, the prince or magistrate enacts temporary or perpetual laws, and amends or abrogates those that have been already enacted. By the second, he makes peace or war, sends or receives embassies, establishes the public security, and provides against invasions. By the third, he punishes criminals, or determines the disputes that arise between individuals. The latter we shall call the judiciary power, and the other, simply, the executive power of the state.
Charles de Montesquieu
It seems to me that there has been a LOT more exacting of laws than amending or abrogating.
Perhaps the only good thing about artificial intelligence is that it could be used to overhaul our legal system and identify all the laws that probably clash at this point. Justinian was praised for overhauling the Eastern Roman legal system. Perhaps it is time for something similar here. Simplicity and clarity are virtues.
