A cornerstone of modern economics is that governments respond to incentives, just like other agents, and once they have developed and rolled out a new tool to tax people, they're likely to keep using it, regardless of what the law says. They can't credibly commit to not doing that. And billionaires may understand that governments will do just that.
Thinking about incentives rather than just looking at the text of the law is what economists do.
“Economics and Political Science shows the most pronounced growth in
Facts/Truth Claims of any subfield… This reflects these disciplines’ ongoing turn toward quantitative and experimental approaches… Identity showed only marginal growth before a modest uptick in the most recent years, suggesting the identity-focused rhetorical shift documented elsewhere has barely touched Economics and Political Science.”
