But if you elect judges the people might actually vote for someone who openly says they don't think some laws are valid or should be upheld.

Imagine if some teenager doesn't get their life totally fucked because some 70 year old fascist fuckstick who was appointed in 1980 thinks every crime, no matter the magnitude or validity, should be met with the harshest of penalties possible! It would be chaos!

(Basically the mindset of all US politicians and far too many normal people too. "Oh you stole candy? Sorry, penalty is death. You knew the law, scum!" "Moral country" btw. Look how the hogs and even libs have reacted to "progressive" DAs in some cities opting to not prosecute unnecessary petty crimes and instead going harder after crimes of violence including crimes committed by the police (like in Philly. And holllllly fuck do the cops and shitclown Governor hate the DA. People love it though. Objectively bettering things even if only slightly))
