Yes, that is my assertion – it’s impossible to verify that you have considered and correctly interpreted all relevant law, although it should be rare for professionals to make a mistake, especially after extended research. I’m curious as to what makes you think this problem can be solved trivially? Formal verification is hard enough for algorithms over the integers.

Law needs to be rewritten to be efficient and transparent. Logically speaking, the first countries to do so should score major investments and trade bonuses from multinationals. If you have a tinpot dictatorship with US protection or an out of the way novelty country with few useful industries, you could do worse than throw down on this project.
