This is the case for most “Dumb laws”: there’s an outlier that becomes kinda silly, but it’s not really worth the effort to change.
I saw one “It’s illegal to hunt Blue Whales in Idaho”. Because it’s illegal to hunt endangered species in Idaho, and Blue Whales are endangered, not because legislators were super concerned about saving Idaho’s whale population.
I find that there’s usually a good reason for seemingly stupid shit in this world.
Was shooting the shit with a customer who was bitching about grass seed bags being full of inert materials. Had no idea! Another customer chimed in that the extra crap is to help if feed properly in a spreader.
It’s because all the packages have the same domestic weight limit.
Seems silly, but makes sense in the context.

Makes for good clickbait, heh.
