Noting that people will break a law is a vacuous criticism of said law. Noting that a law will make it easier for people to break the law (or take advantage of it) is certainly not.

Indeed, I'd argue that any analysis of the utility of a new law that doesn't take added opportunities for fraud into account (alongside the other negative effects of adding complexity) is simply worthless.
