Would it make a difference it the death were a result of manslaughter, where the death was a result of someone doing something illegal? Extreme orthodoxy is better than anarchy, however, often a more articulated application of rules is more productive. Iconoclastic or nihilistic application or rules may be easier or more obedient to authority, but thinking on the level of Neanderthals, especially by an organization with strict enforcement powers, could result in unnecessary waste. An inflexible organization that claims to be universal or catholic will not respond to the greater good as needed. The worst case is when two authoritarian or communist governments try to enforce conflicting laws on disputed territory, resulting in war. If an organization is so orthodox that it cannot adapt, it should not have exclusive rights, so that natural selection could sort out the value of different rules.
