An old, dog-eared novel, a grizzly hide rug,
the corniest puns wrapped in baritone hugs,
black licorice toffee, something absurd,
and a musical number with too many words.
I feel this way about almost all the examples people have replied to you with. People were loudly rewriting a bunch of these events while they were still happening.

I prefer more flexible than "you can cast these spells, which always have the same effects" but not so flexible that what I can and can't do depends more on the GM's mood than anything else. Ars Magica and Mage: the Ascension are good examples, IMO.

As an abolitionist anthropologist, I offer that this is a result of our carceral culture.

We have been convinced, to the benefit of capitalists, that some people are "bad" and only "bad people" do harmful things. Thus we collectively let them throw racialized men in prison & invade "evil" countries
