If you don't control the land it may get up and move elsewhere. That would leave a huge gap where it used to be, and you may fall in. That's why there are so many sinkholes in Florida. The landowners didn't discipline the land when it was young and they lost control.

Cliff the postman from Cheers told me this so it must be true.

Rather than focusing on the problem, I'd say the thing you will find in "common" with controlling land, zoning and planning could be the overall topic of bureaucracy.
