I propose a scalable law of quantum physics:

For a given organization, the amount of structure required is proportional to the amount of conscious scrutiny it receives.

The IRS has a lot of scrutiny. It has a lot of rules, policies and procedures.
Sandlot ball games have little structure. Professional games have a lot.
Amateurs can do things pretty much any way they please.
Professionals have to do it by the rules.

Structure is created and enforced by consciousness.
