The EU has more lax regulations on SAR than the FCC does (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_absorption_rate#Mobil...).

It may be unnecessarily low, but it's certainly not a mark of shame for EU citizens specifically.

Then why is the iPhone 12 not in violation of US regulations?

According to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37496859, it seems like the article is wrong and the iPhone 12 isn't actually in violation of EU regulations. It's just in violation of France's regulations because France is weird.
