this is an argument much like min wage: that it's BETTER for poor people to not be allowed to get X at all (where X is "a job" or "a lawyer") unless it can get one that meets some 3rd party's standard
I'm sympathetic to @WhippleMarc's desire to make a living, but not this arghttps://twitter.com/WhippleMarc/status/1166189576546848768 …
so then the response to me defending such proposals should not be "so run for congress and pass such laws", but should instead be "it's already happening, you should be happy", no ?

I wasn't responding to you, I was responding to "I'd rather see the whole legal profession die." Which, fine. Everybody's gotta have goals. But if you're going to respond to "here's why what's happening to the legal profession is bad" with "let's just get rid of it..."

...then I submit that what you are really doing is highjacking the argument, and a response along the lines of "fine, then go do what you want, I'm talking about something else" is entirely reasonable.
