This not only a problem with the EU, but with concentrated power in general. It wouldn't be cost effective to lobby every single government to pass this type of legislation, but when you concentrate it into a single place, suddenly intense lobbying becomes cost effective.
I have a similar attitude to the US Federal government and why I think state rights are supreme. You lose economies of scale, but gain a distributed and hard(er) to corrupt system.

The EU will rarely be critized for standardizing boring regulation. I keep thinking that in the post brexit world maybe the EU should strive away from controversial topics for a few years. But I could be wrong :)
