>>I'm so tired of this "regulations bad" trope. Yeah. Back in India, around 20 years ago, a factory owner near my house used to keep weak hyrdochloric acid in the fridge with water bottles. To save money, he would use... you guessed it, old water bottles (since the acid was very diluted). Guess what happened one day when a worker confused the 2? The owner son boasted to me how his father had paid the medical expenses of the worker, how nice he was etc etc. And today I think, what would have happened if this had happened in the US/UK? The business owner would no longer be in business. There is a reason these regulations are so hard ass; because they've had to cope with shit like this. Now sure, sometimes the regulations go overboard and end up harming the industry, but thats not an argument for "Muh, regulations bad ".
