Because obviously if you make things illegal, like driving for eye testing purposes and fleeing to tiny northern cities to check into small local under-resourced hospitals, they just don't do them. Didn't Ransome report on Oscar Wilde's trial?
Not quite, but possibly even better: Ransome wrote a book on Oscar Wilde in 1912, and was sued for libel by Lord Alfred Douglas (apparently because he thought it would be a way to get back at Robbie Ross). Douglas lost and was bankrupted as a result.
