Best similar case I can think of is the EU regulating charging cables (and mandating USB-C for a lot of devices).

It was a common consumer good with a problem that really annoyed some people so much that they made a law to "fix" it. Others said it would stifle innovation. To me how people feel about that probably says something about what chances this proposal has.

How do people feel about the USB-C mandate? Are there other similar recent examples?
