I got you, you’re right. implementing legislation around software would require appointing a board of experts to create the codes - like building codes. The board licenses the professional software engineers. They also receive complaints and discipline them. From there, legislation follows. The codes and rules of conduct provide the framework required for legislation. Legislation can’t exist in earnest without software professionals and codes.

There’s absolutely no reason why professionals at this pay grade and handling this much risk can’t be following this level of rigor.
