Are there are governance/legal systems who systematically keep track of the costs/externalities of their rulesets and default to removing/changing rules if they are proven to be a net negative? Not “we realized that this is bad and campaign to change it”, but built in proactively.

not that I know of I think the problem is the human error potential in keeping track of costs/externalities perfectly who tracks the trackers to ensure that their process isn't overly cautious and harming the legal system by falsely labeling things net negative?

This is a good conversation I listened to today about this exact thing. Highlights how difficult it is because externalities are often subjective and not evenly distributed, and reviews are expensive. https://pca.st/episode/232380c6-4edf-434b-9861-f24c7b1e2f1f

None comes to mind that does it perfectly, especially in the public sphere (easier to do within a smaller for-profit scope where impacts are more obvious). Most governance bodies try to do that to some degree with regulatory impact analysis, public sounding, regulatory reviews / sunset, etc but some externalities…
