The challenge is that based on the advice of experts, the commission made recommendations which violate or are in conflict with end-to-end encryption.
The public deserves to know the lineage of such decision-making and (rightfully) stimulate or recommend improvements to the process.

"Based" is doing a lot of service there. Maybe they were fully in support. Maybe they told the EU it was a terrible, stupid idea and were ignored. At the end of the day, the EU body made the proposed regulation, and I'd like to know individuals' involvements before assuming their opinion. F.ex. I would assume that Alex Stamos didn't tell them it was a brilliant idea
