As a Spanish Speaking, I grew into not using the Oxford Comma myself. I can accept that other people use it, though. I suppose it has to do with several things, my like of minimalism among them.
But if I read your post correctly, the famous (and it seems eternally controversial) ruling on the Second Amendment regarding "a well regulated militia" is contrary to what you propose here?
In the 2nd Amendment "well regulated" is an adjective to describe the "militia," which does not mean every Tom, Dick, or Harry who wants to have a gun, and certainly not a military-style rifle. When the 2nd Amendment was written, people were using muskets.
The "militia" is similar to today's National Guard, which IS "well regulated."
