Lawmakers proposed a law that would allow them to eat babies. Since lawmaking is a process eventually this eventually morphs into a law that only allows the eating of teenagers and then only those who also have red hair or blue eyes.

Without infinite time lots of people only know that the bill allows eating people and aren't entirely clear on the exact criteria of people allowed to be eaten.

A process that starts in extremely bad faith is unlikely to be negotiated into something reasonable. The best solution is to keep threatening lawmakers who pass stuff like this with replacement in hopes that nothing lands because there is no universe in which they are capable of producing good legislation on a topic they know less than nothing about.
