I agree about treating people “fairly and with respect,” as a philosophical, or guiding concept. That having been said, even if law and/or regulation do try to follow those guiding concepts, as a practical matter, they have to have things laid out, chapter and verse, with specific language. Even though most people rail against that as being “obstructionist bureaucracy,” in fact, no one would actually be happy with handing power to a bureaucrat/gov’t employee, with the instructions of “just do whatever seems fair to you."
