You can't legislate judgement. If the FAA were to make a reg that required an instrument rating for night cross country flights pilots would then probably think that right after getting their instrument ticket that getting some actual experience at night might not be a bad idea. For every reg made, people with poor decision making skills just have to become more creative with their dagerous behavior. A better investment for the industry would be to stress ADM a lot more during training for all ratings. This way someone might think their way out of going into conditions that might not have a horizon.
The pilots that makes their own judgement and learns from his or her own decisions will survive a heck of a lot longer than someone who just sticks to FAA mandates for there sake. Regulation is no substitute for good decision making.
