All very interesting—there are things called impact assessments which are used for legislation to predict and justify impact—the Westminster Parliament does not insist on impact assessments for Bills—statutory instruments normally have them—the devolved legislatures normally have them—they carry from almost the kind of specific modelling you are talking about to something more generic and less helpful from your perspective.
