Of course we ignore the letter of that law. It's a stupid law.
What other laws will we ignore?

Speed limits, littering laws, loitering laws, etc. Some states have state lotteries while also having banned gambling in the state.
(At least, some used to do that. I can't be bothered to check the current laws w.r.t. lottos and gambling.)

In summary, we ignore any law that we want to and it's not a slippery anything.
All laws are meaningless. Gotcha.
