Why should law enfocement and prosecuters get to decide which laws to enforce and which not to, but jurrors cant?

Unless the laws on the books were short and perfect, there is always going to be enforcement choices, and it seems to me the jury nulification option is no worse than other selective enforcement. It lets guilty people go free, sure, but it sometimes stops unjust incarceration.
