Judging by how most people write code today, I find this idea terrifying. I sometimes wonder if it would be better if we went back to an ancient-Roman style legal system which maximizes the human interpretive element rather than attempts to remove it.
It's already the case in many countries today that there is too much focus on the wording of the law and not enough on the intent. People try to use a rigid fixation on the importance of words to twist the law in any direction which benefits them, even in ways that don't feel right.

We risk a Kafkaesque situation.
