Why?

I'm a European and I like this policy.

I like that individuals have the ability to have things that are no longer relevant forgotten about them so that their ability to have social mobility isn't compromised. I like that young people who make mistakes are now given the chance to move on, mature and change.

The opposite to this law is a view that a person can never change, and must always be held accountable for their past in their future.

No, I'm really happy this exists.

"To err is human", otherwise translated as "everyone make mistakes". Life and potential shouldn't halt when it happens.
