I'll admit that I'm not entirely sure what point you're arguing anymore. If you think religious law is malleable through argument, then religious law changing after argument or discussion isn't a problem, it's just how it works.

Wouldn't you know, there's actual debate with citations about faucets and the circumstances In which they're permitted or not. It's not "all work" that's prohibited, but specific categories in certain circumstances. I'm neither a Rabbi, a scholar of talmudic law nor even Jewish so my understanding of the specifics are only about as deep as curiosity has taken me over the years. I don't think the specifics matter for this discussion.

Yes, there's nothing actually tangible about any law, religious or otherwise that compells people to follow it beyond cultural momentum. Words lack inherent meaning and it's only through shared convention that we agree on meaning or order in our society.
