When you let Uncle Sam get his nose under the tent, you open up a whole new can of worms. Some issues have been mentioned above, like catalytics.

And don't think it will only apply to newly-built machines. Sooner or later, regulatory creep will set in. government regulators are never happy unless they can invent new areas of control to widen their area of responsibility and ensure their job security.

Just ask - when did the government dabble in a field and not screw it up?

Just my humble opinion.
