I don’t disagree, my argument is why continue? The scientific method is thrown out the window. Age verification, oh you need the cooperation of member nations of the EU, ok, wait, everyone has different systems, ok, new objective - standardize the systems so we can do age verification like we want.

I know politics isn’t logical but if you keep drilling down the root cause, eventually you’ll hit bedrock.

Because countries don’t want to give away more sovereignty?

EU needs to federalize but europeans are still too nationalistic for that to happen. Even Germany is too tiny to matter in the global stage but even small countries with population of a city in America will be like “we are special, we can take on USA and China because of our intrinsic characteristics. Even if we can’t we are definitely better than our neighbors”.
