In the case of cops, not knowing the law is actually a benefit. They've been allowed to enforce what they believe is law, and if they find something actually illegal in the course of enforcing imaginary law, then it's still valid.

It's a benefit for the government not the people, they get to extract more from people who don't know better, it's abusive. It may exist but I don't enjoy it.
