Laws aren’t made that way and laws made that way usually aren’t good. Like a farmer writing rules for people in the city or vice versa purely based on what they think the other side wants.

It’s much better if the farmers directly tell you what they want and the city folk tell you what they want and together they figure it out.

Census details is great for understanding long term trends. It’s not to be used directly for decision making, even if the intention is good, and the intentions have also been very bad.

Surely you know the history being referenced here.
