That's GREAT in theory, but remember that the original 2257 came into place because of Traci Lords and her GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID. They were more at fault than ANYONE who shot her.
The government doesn't want to take ANY responsibility for that happening again, including a government controlled modelling agency.
When they found they couldn't prosecute anyone for shooting underage models in our industry under the old 2257, because NOONE legitimate would knowingly do so, they had to come up with a new way to control our industry.
Hence the NEW 2257.
