Much harder to enforce against services.

Physical goods you can hold until tariffs are paid.

Services are paid for by invoices between two corporate entities whose legal domicile may have nothing to do with the real country of origin of the services.

Lots of European SaaS providers invoice US customers from their US subsidiary - impossible to distinguish the transaction in order to put a tariff on it.
