Maybe it doesn't make much difference? Maybe fine-tuning salami tarriffs is something that should not be done, and relevant legislators should be freed to perhaps produce salami themself?
I don't have any confirmations that these small decisions actually matter much.
You can have salami makers lobby for 6,5% import tax then salami sellers lobby for 4% import tax for years before the same parliament, this consuming resources of society but bringing zero value to society at large.
On other hand, we can still leave such decisions to relevant professionals and pass laws to gauge their work.

Why not do this for everything? In fact, politicians already have armies of expert advisors that they just choose not to listen to when their analysis does not conform to party lines or personal agenda. This is what should be fixed instead of trying to pass such a huge reform.
I don't have faith in expert advisors. They often live in their own bubble and resist reality with impunity.
Society should be able to command them on issues that raise enough attention. "So what if you think that you should scan everybody at airports, admit 2M immigrants annually and log all phone calls? You're not doing that, effective immediately."
