It would slow down process and if someone gets arrested we get the whole going through the space law stuff and then get processed.
By removeing most of the ambigitiouty of the space law... people get arrested, put in the brig for a minute then can continune antagging or such.
I'm not expecting people to hold trials or anything I would just like the time you get brigged for to be standardized between all officers for the same crimes.
Knowing what time a given crime gets you in the brig (or having the wiki open until you know) doesn't seem like a long time waste, especially if the alternative is supposed to be a discussion between all sec members.

This has happened to me before where a packet sniffer user litterly caught on to my SPIEFing without me as much as doing anything, sure my stash was hidden away... but basically my PDA got taken and I was busted before I even did 1 crime.
That sucks but it happened without this system so I don't really see what it has to do with the topic. I think Space Law could make it clear the pre-emptive arresting is not legal, it could even discourage it in that way.

I can only speak for my own experience here but the time between knowing the antag exists and brigging him is usually my favourite (if the antag is good at rp-ing and things like that), Space Law only applies after you catch Mr. Kill or whoever, it can be written in any way people want but I'd personally like it if it was quite lenient to give antags and officers more chances to interact, but if that is not the general sentiment it can also be written in the opposite way.
