that is absolutely not true. most standards AREN’T mandated by law. ANSI is voluntary for example. USB is a standard that isn’t written into law, you get the picture
My point is that at any time a manufacturer can just go “Fuck them, I’m creating my own interface” for this reason, the standard isn’t mandated by law! Case in point: Apple
I guess I don’t understand the problem. Companies use the superior standard. Innovation is good. Look at NACS charging plug, everyone has given up on CCS in the US and signed up to switch. Despite the government mandating CCS in charge stations
