Somehow there's a decent amount of tech in the healthcare space, which has a lot of codes and regulations as well.

Which I also don't understand as it seems like more trouble than it's worth sometimes (I worked for a corporation that was in that field at one point, we were expected to make big changes almost every year when new laws got passed).

In healthcare I imagine that they are at least somewhat universal across an industry or sub field or country. At the very least insurance forces some standardization.

A town of 10K might have a completely separate building code and zoning categories.
