Also, must be nice to live in a country where the regulator is as benevolent and reasonable as is described in this article.
I think it's ok for foreigners to be skeptical of this promise, as the article implies that this reasonableness is not encoded in law.
This is the main issue with this regulation in my opinion. Some of the recent statements by EU officials on that matter verge on absolutist notions of law: "Don't worry. Authorities will be lenient and benevolent." This is how absolutist kings argued why there shouldn't be a constitution or a state under the rule of law.
