(1) it's clear that the regulatory agencies are gunning up to get more involved in "digital health" products which make healthcare claims and (2) it depends who your customers are. If you're only selling to b2c and can afford to never make healthcare claims then you're absolutely right. If you ever want to sell b2b (which is where healthcare dollars are at) then you'll need more.

And yes, all health products should be regulated, and they shouldn't be as deregulated as they are now. "If you ever want to sell b2b (which is where healthcare dollars are at) then you'll need more." Non-evidence based medicine doesn't seem to be running into any roadblocks.
