Why do you think we're NOT having debt forgiven? It's not some bug in the code, it's a natural result of the way things are built.
Indeed. It is a natural result because anything else would be unnatural. Regulations must exist to prop up our ever complicated world, but they should be the exception, not the rule.
E.g, dept forgiveness is generally economic poison, but if a complete total lack of leeway will cause far greater ruin, then some concessions must be made.
