These certainly aren’t the big issues that governments should mainly focus on, but I think there is definitely something in this. A lot of people seem to feel the “death by a thousand cuts” that modern life seems to impose on us. Just small inconveniences, annoyances and costs we experience every day that are unfair and make our lives slightly worse. I think this is an opportunity for small things that are highly visible that actually make people’s lives better in small ways but don’t cost a lot. So I’m broadly in favour of this as long as it does not take up too much government effort.
