In theory a tech-competent judge could enforce laws to be closer to technical reality.

That's true. I suppose that's the idea. If that's the case, technical education should become a part of judgeship, if it's not already.

Yes. Though of course it would also help if the laws were written by tech-competent people.

(That doesn't mean that all people in parliament need to be competent. Most laws are written by specialists, not MPs.)
