Understand that reality doesn't run on computer code; you can't hard reboot history, and you can't just hard code in universal rules that people are compelled to follow. Coming up with good rules for a hypothetical society is the easy part, it's the political problems that come with trying to implement them that is hard.
Alright. Then the Magna Carta, American constitution, and European constitutions never happened.
You are shutting down the very concept of people talking about possible solutions. "It can't happen, because it is hard." People have to talk, exchanging ideas on theory and implementation, the promise of supporting each other, and eventually a real thing emerges.
