It's so much worse than that. "Laws should be exhaustively comprehensive" is a completely unworkable system. You cannot predict every possible combination of context and law, and attempting to do so would be literal combinatorics explosion.
People who push that kind of system know this, and want the system to be hamstrung by exactly that situation. They want a system that can only outlaw their new, explicitly harmful scheme after an entire game of politics in congress, such that they could prevent something becoming law by encouraging the already bad stonewalling in congress. They want government agencies to be so bound up by poorly written law that they cannot administrate at all.
I just want a system that is predictable , objective and that works quickly . Saying that there are flaws in the current system simply offends the gate keepers of the system.
