That's just the thing, isn't it? I meant my previous comment in the absence of a random wildcard like Makishima. He seems to me an element deliberately placed into the story just to highlight the flaws of the system. He's a character that conveniently exists outside the system thanks to some undisclosed flaw in the Psycho-Pass reading, so his actions don't really appeal to me as a natural consequence of such a system.
In a vacuum, an authoritarian society, though distasteful, certainly has its purposes, doesn't it? The one in Shin Sekai Yori comes to mind.
