The exercise of that right is certainly not mandatory. I have the right to counsel, but nobody is mandating that I hire a lawyer, or that a lawyer be hired on my behalf regardless of circumstance.Then you are saying the law is meaningless. That is just plain senseless. "(g) To be properly educated. " (i) "To receive necessary services and rehabilitation. " etc.

But you find the notion that "entitled to counsel" being exactly identical to "must always have counsel" sensible? Interesting.
