Why is this gap standard in America and basically absent in europe? It's not like these concerns are US-exclusive.

Europe tends to like good standards.

Americans tend to question them and then do whatever they want to do.

Europe also tends to cultivate a village mentality where people trust each other to follow decorum.

America tends to operate as if vaguely hostile strangers are rolling through town all the time.
