Let's not get carried away. The Bluebook is a useful guide to the complexities of legal citation ONLY because ... get this ... the Bluebook CREATED those complexities in the first place! (What do you expect when you let a bunch of Harvard *students* write the rules?) That's right -- the rules are the rules ONLY because the Bluebook says that's how it should be done, and the entire legal profession has foolishly signed on. The ALWD manual -- a guide produced by practicing lawyers who teach writing -- is MUCH better than the Bluebook in many ways, but no actually uses it outside academia. Until ALWD is the standard in legal practice, you'll need the Bluebook if you plan to be a lawyer.
