Bad law enforced perfectly is also undesirable.

I'm not convinced. Perfect enforcement would be a great signal exposing bad law much more clearly, so it can be rewritten/scrapped.

Sure, but what about those who got hit by that bad law in the meantime?

Usually laws are created because of the people being harmed because the law doesn't exist. So it could go either way.

Until a bad law takes your friends and family out of the gene pool.
