The likelihood that a nation or civilization will collapse is directly related to the number of laws that are imposed on the citizens who are not involved in government.
A corollary to this theory is:
Each law imposed on citizens creates a new group of criminals.
From the economic perspective:
The likelihood that a nation will collapse is directly related to the action of fellow citizens who govern and take more from the haves to give to themselves and to the have nots. Inevitably there will be few, if any, haves and many or all citizens will be have nots.
It is easier to be a have not who demands more of those who have, than it is to be a have whose labors are confiscated to meet the demands of the have nots.

To turn my leering leaching eye to the realm of "Notes", for example "Community Notes" and all other sources of information sometimes also called data either for or not for "checking" or any other purpose such as research. Can there be identified anything that is useless before one's encounter with such note (source)?

What I am quite but not completely sure of is that I would support not preventing anyone from not doing what they do not want to do. However, in some situations I would not recommend such behavior.
