Loopholes matter. Even more than the intention of rules and policies. This is what bring about unintended consequences.

The problem is not rules or loopholes.
The problem is that the solution or rules for the problem are not effective.
That is why it has loopholes.

For example, the govt said 5 persons dine  in if they are vaccinated.
But most restaurants implement 2 persons dine in.
it cannot motivate people to vaccinate if no restaurant implements 5 persons dine in.

If I am the govt, I will say customers will get 20% discount at restaurants if they are vaccinated.
This solution is effective because more people will be encouraged to go for vaccination.

what is the point of 5 person dine in when you cannot find the restaurant for 5 persons dine in ?
