For the sake of discussion, I would like to open up for debate the
suggestion the EU process is one of the most unreasonably excessive in
the world.
We can establish some initial facts and questions:
1. Revisions of requirements are based in international or regional
standards, developed in essentially inclusive forums.
2. Are US regulatory requirements developed in equally inclusive fora?
3. Revisions are very rarely about making requirements more stringent,
and these days any proposed need for that has to be really proven.
4. Revisions are mostly about embracing new technologies, improved
methods of measurement and more insightful principles (like hazard-based
safety assessment).
5. Dissatisfaction with new requirements often stems from not
participating in the discussions processes leading up to them.

Instead of saying that the government is doing too little, too late or too
much, too early, say they've got is exactly right, thus throwing them into
total confusion.
