Template:M intro design thin rules: Difference between revisions

Created page with "Thin rules create not just arbitrary obligations, loosely targeted at a principle, but arbitrary ''rights'' which people seek to ''enforce''. The arbitrary boundaries become a value, irrespective of the substance of the circumstances. A thick rule is “only cross the road if it will not impede traffic and would be be safe to do so”. The thin rule would be, “do not cross unless there is a green man”."
