This reminds me a little of the idea floated by some California bureaucrat to ban the color black from new cars since they absorb heat more readily which requires the air conditioning to run more, which uses more fuel, which despoils the planet, etc.

In response to that inanity, I conjured the WTF Rule for evaluating government proposals: if a reasonable person’s first response to a regulation is “what the f***?” then the relevant government department would have its budget cut in half. If the response continues “no, seriously! WTF?” then the department is history. Seems like it would have been a perfect position for the “governator.”
