      Hanlon’s Razor has been weaponized too many times

      And the rich, affluent, and powerful are thankful for it.

      An act of malice is a crime.
      An act of stupidity is specifically not.

      Whom does Hanlon’s Razor benefit?
      An accosted’s peace of mind, or an accoster’s ass?

        Ignorance of the law is not a defense and stupidity definitely leads to about the same amount of crimes as malice.
