Yes, that is how the law works. I think, that within limits, that is how it should work. Where I have difficulty is in figuring out those limits.

For another example, Canada has gone many decades explicitly prohibiting consecutive sentencing. There seems to be some movement in at least softening that prohibition. I can see why that might be a good idea in some cases, but I don't want Canada to just go all-in on consecutive sentencing.
