In some sense more complexity of rules always equals more choices.
Sure, a tax system with 100,000s of pages of laws gives you more choices to declare your taxes than a tax system with one page but that doesn't make it in itself better.
Laws should be as simple as possible instead of maximizing legal choices.

The issue is: do divorce proceedings cost so much extra? There are already judges, court houses etc.
If the judges would work on other cases the time it takes for a case would be reduced with would also be a good thing.

The United States nation's 10.4 million divorces are estimated to have cost the taxpayers over $30 billion.
Where does that number come from?

Talking about this in terms of “bad news” or “bad judgment by business leaders” seems archaic. It’s like describing World War One as “a serious diplomatic concern.”
