Your 2012 comparison doesn’t hold up. IMO that’s the most sensible way to approach something like this, anything else is a value judgment on what you think someone is going to do based on very little. What is now possible that previously was not? That’s the core question. If no one is going to do it, why would they push to change the regulation?
