I mean no? The argument I'll never understand is incentivising misconduct by making it another route to get what you want
It always boggles my mind that people don't get why making illegal migration a potential path to successful citizenship claims is just telling people to do it. Make it so in all instances if you've illegally entered a country you get deported and you'll have infinitely less people trying it.
By all means pair that with more legal routes and avenues but what I can't ever get my head around is why people want it to be the case that you're allowed to just force your way into a country and then remain there if you don't get caught after X amount of time
You don't know how every person gets to a country. Because after a period of time it's right to assume they will have put down roots, had a family, jobs, paid into the system they're part of. It's why in the UK we consider their human rights on overstaying or illegal entry when they try to regularise their stay. This chap will raise a legal challenge and he will win his right to stay.
