But as I said, the written word is inherently clearer than "fairness". There's less room for difference. And everyone can read the words of the law, whereas we can't look into the heart of the judge and know what he'll think is fair.

Imagine if something like child support was determined by each individual judge's sense of fairness instead of legislated guidelines -- one judge thinks it's fair to allocate 80% of a man's income while another thinks 20% is fair. With written law, the rule is known.
