i think we agree nearly 100%, i just don't know if you have realized that.

The only thing is "it's not that much work"... It is, it's a waste of resources (human, time, money) and in governmental organisations everything costs triple the amount of money compared to a normal company.
Waste of time for the DA, and sure everything has a reason, but the point is that this makes no sense. You create a problem that wasn't there before just to show the people how you solve it. Then, the agents run free and everyone is pissed off that thought of "justice" before.
Sort of typical in any governmental organisation over the world, somehow politicians everywhere do this and fail.
