I suppose it does help a bit. I'm OK with irregular, improper etc but not illegal.
But what you say is not entirely true about unofficial points of entry in all countries.
Have you ever seen the videos of people crossing in an irregular manner to Canada at Roxham Road?
This is quite interesting in terms of how the Canadians say, don't cross here but don't actually do anything to stop them other than giving them some verbal advice to tell them to go back. If they are determined, they help them out with services on the Canadian side. Pretty cool. You can see more on the video (skip to 1m).
These people are claiming asylum, mainly at the time of Trump's presidency but there's still a steady trickle post-COVID. And of course, if Trump comes back in, Canada will see a spike again at Roxham Road.

Some Americans wanting to leave the USA because of Donald used the loop hole in the law at that piont as it had few boarder controls (which was pointless as there was nothing baring any American leaving the country in any other direction as well). Beause... Why? I have no clue. Dimensional paranoia? Or because they simply did not have a US passport (stupid them). I do not know. I am not a mental health expert or an expert on telling Americans to get a passport (too few Americans have a passport -- much to their error).
I have traveled in and out of the USA more times than I can count. I see no reason to use that place but for some, sad, maybe metally ill people thinking they need needed to cross there to "avoid" Donald. Or simply beacuse the did not bother to have a passport. Seriously.... Mental illness or poor planning. Maybe no other reason. And neither reason to make hay about.
So... back on topic, I thought we were talking about standards about immigration, not silly loop holes, used by some maybe miss guided people. Seriously... Disapointed you bring up this reference. You normally do better. Here you give a straw man falacy.
And that legal loop hole has been mosly closed as of March of 2023. So, no, there will be no futhre "spike" on Roxham road. Any American not wanting to "endure" a second Donald presidency, can leave by plane, train, car, boat, bike or even walking using any valid international means of exit and entry if they have a valid passport. But there's the rub (to quote "the Bard")... Americans have a disturbingly low per capita passport ownership. Which can also explain the "Roxham Road" issue. Americans are often unprepared for international travel. Sad. So it is complicated.
Side note: Americans fearful of the elections next year, may want to apply for their passports today.... HaHa....
Side note 2: Americans fearful of a Democratic win next year and wanting to migrate to Hungary, do be aware you can not bring your arsenal of guns to Hungary. There is no Second Admendment in Hungary. And firearm ownership is tightly regulated and controllled. Just saying.....
Hope this helps.
