but it is better to let a murderer go free than put an innocent man in jail.
The thought question attached to this is that if I let all accused murderers go, I could truthfully claim that I had never once put an innocent man in jail. There is always a degree of doubt in regards to innocence or guilt in court.

I would also say that any system that attempts to totally eradicate success of the fittest as well as environmental pressures will eventually crumble. We are subject to the laws of nature as well.
