Does anyone reading have any additional perspective on this battle?
Will a ?model line? DoC be possible in the future?
Things like this tend to be modified as the consultation and other
processes progress. It relay depends on how strongly such proposals are
challenged by European and international trade associations.
One obvious question in 'cui bono?' - for whom is such a requirement a
benefit? Since the general public mostly throws away the instruction
book of each product (and doesn't know what a DoC is, anyway), the DoC
will go with it. Market surveillance bodies seem unlikely to unbox every
product in a shipment to check the number on its DoC with its serial
number. A non-compliant product remains non-compliant however many
pieces of paper carry its serial number.
