It's not about banning design patterns. It's about removing the harmful results they produce.
Can you imagine if gambling were allowed to be marketed to children? Especially things like slot machines. We absolutely limit the reach of those "design patterns".
This argument falls apart in the EU though. Where it's legal for 14 year olds to drink alcohol.
That's not because EU countries want people to make their own decisions, it's because not so many people in EU think alcohol is bad for kids.
