As much as laws have unintended consequences — sometimes that were contrary to intent, even consequences that •nobody• wanted! — we do have room for humans to wiggle within and around the law, to argue its meaning, to refine and sharpen its interpretation. That means courts reading the law, yes — and it also includes the creative workaround and/or malicious compliance of these city workers repaving a sidewalk.

Interpretive latitude in the law is a feature, not a bug.
