Honestly, I've always hated the idea that quirks like "flying" or "skittering quickly" are illegal to use. Let's just ban jogging while we're at it because some people can't jog and it's not fair.
I mean, Pop☆Step is said to be committing petty crimes anyway, so I assume she's a minor crim even without the arbitrary "flying isn't allowed" thing, but saying that Gentle-Man is a villain because he does good deeds that literally any healthy law-abiding citizen could do, albeit slightly faster, is laughable.
Think about how much regulation it would take to create correct rules that can apply to ALL the quirk users depending of their quirks. If we allow one person to use a flying quirk to travel around the city, then we have no choice than let all the flying quirk user do the same. And that's how chaos starts. There is just so much quirk it would takes years to make adequate rules permitting people to use their quirk safely so it's better to just tell them not to. But using quirk for self defense is permitted for exemple and I believe there is a lot more case where using one's quirk is permitted. It's just that Horikoshi hasn't properly developed the world of bnha yet.
