It's not perfect, but it improves on the previous state of affairs. The free market did not even manage to give us standardized Micro-USB charging. Regulation is not competing against Utopia.

But it's slower to adopt change. We have USB-C now that is better than micro USB, gives all of the advantages of the lightning port. But now technology is being held back by the government. If the EU had just let the free market decide, the phone manufacturers would have eventually standardized on USB-C - except probably Apple - or the market would have decided it doesn't care.
