Fully agreed.

“Oh but businesses will leave”

Yeah so what, if they do, we either didn’t want them, or they _actually won’t_ despite the squealing, or they will go, and if their segment of the market is useful, will get snapped up by new/local versions which do respect local constraints from the get-go.

All of these are better outcomes than not doing anything because “what if”.

That only works with tariffs, which are widely considered evil apparently.
