In a single-objective system (like the body), "leakage" might be tolerated, or even evolved into a "feature."
But in a system with N conflicting objectives (like society), what is "leakage"?
It is a breeding ground for corruption.
It is a space for rent-seeking.
It is a backdoor to bypass rules.
It is a channel for "actual implementers" to usurp "nominal power."
When you say "leakage is a feature," you are essentially saying "corruption is a feature," which is theoretically untenable. This precisely proves that any attempt to manage a society composed of independent agents with a perfect "top-level design" will inevitably be dismantled by the "implementers" at the bottom, pursuing their own interests, through the leaky abstract layer.
