Not really, no. Why do you think it be easier to police? In concrete terms: who do you expect to do the policing? Because this is the kind of work that requires an expert, to catch an expert, messing with a product created by people 100% ignorant of _what_ they're making. Just _that_ they're making them. Where are you going find enough experts to check the work of even a single production line?

Because "thousands of miles away in a country that actively encourages IP theft and other wrongdoings". It makes perfect sense. If you don't think that, try to run any business in another country. It's just obvious that it would be easier to do domestically. You just list other set of problems. Those problems only get compounded if we'are talking about another country.
