That's still not a point at all, just like saying "maybe political change would be good". Like, of course there are incidents where common sense morality and legal practice don't match, that's where lawmakers should step in and change something.
Yes, and the point of this is to remind people that's an option. A lot of people get stuck in "life is how it is" and change seems impossible. It's important to be reminded sometimes that it's not.
