re: regulatory grey zones, historically i've seen that in the US it's "when it's grey you can play," while across the EU it's been "wait for state guidance before proceeding," which continues to still be the case imo 🤷

I think it’s a broader observation that coincides my own (having lived on both continents). The US approach tends to be, “legal unless explicitly stated otherwise”, vs the European approach tends to be, “forbidden unless explicitly allowed”
