Side note, looking from the other side of the Atlantic.

I find it crazy that in US you can have 95-page law-like document (in a tiny-font!) produced by executive branch. [1] Especially if a different administration can easily cancel it.

Why doesn't Congress produce these instead?

I wonder how many pages are in the whole corpus of laws and executive rules currently in effect in the US.
