It is indeed. And that sucks but that's what it is. Product design is about calculated risks and trades. It's a good thing regulators are here to help because companies won't do it on their own and the general public doesn't care enough.
We will all owe the EU a massive debt of gratitude. Hopefully USB C was just the tip of the iceberg.
