Sites need to deal with Australia, which punted all responsibility to the platforms and provided no real assistance (like say the government half of the eID system that manages all the keys and metadata)

Do they? The UK’s population is more than double of Australia’s and some websites (e.g. imgur) are outright blocking the UK.
All publicly-listed ad delivery systems like Meta do in fact need to deal with high-income countries.
They can't afford to and will never strike off 100m Brits and Aussies, and that number will only rise with more high-income countries making regulation.
imgur blocking the UK is not due to ID verification, but because they refused to stop making money off childrens data.
The reason is irrelevant. The point is websites don’t need to deal with <insert country>.
