It does have implications.

Most of humanity believes in some form of next life where they will have to face the implications of what they did in this life. If you are a determinist you either have to accept really depressing Calvinism or conclude that the system makes no sense. Can you really imagine the world being the way it is if billions of people admitted that there was no afterlife or they accepted that literally no actions would impact it? I am willing to bet at least some things would change.

What would a criminal justice system look like where we accepted that A ---> B? Precrime? Livestream scared straight programs? Cutting off all rehabilitation for people serving terminal sentences? I am not sure exactly how it would play out.

What about day-to-day social norms breaking? If someone broke the rules would we make a point to call it out and punish them publicly since we believe that the main purpose is to prevent others from copying them?
