Just to ensure that someone grabbing/destroying/losing one doesn't result in a complete absence of it.
The RD recently got a manudrive in their locker that has all the law module blueprints for this reason.
Also there's not much point to these laws unless the freeform is already overriding/preceding all other laws IN TEXT ("This law overrides all other laws") because then no other law can override it (4: Kill everyone, this law overrides laws 1 and 2. 5: This law overrides law 4) < law 4 was overridden because it didn't override law 5 so there was no conflict between the two. In cases where two laws override/disregard each other, the lower numbered law overrides/disregards the higher numbered law due to the default law precedence.
Having a law automatically become law 0 when uploaded in any slot is also incredibly powerful as you don't need to remove law 1 (risky) to use it.
I don't quite understand the scenario either, there's no inaction clause so if ordered to take inaction you must unless someone else of higher rank orders you to not. You don't break law 1 by allowing people to die, you just can't cause the harm yourself.
